I have been lurking in the background reading/looking for info for some time now and appreciate the help I've received from your posts.
My son received a set of pro comp heads for a graduation present. I installed the heads and a Edelbrock 3701 performer intake using the gasket Edelbrock suggested. All seemed to fit perfectly. A few weeks after installation the motor began using oil and running lean. Suspect the intake was leaking I pulled the intake and found oil in most of the intake ports. The intake gasket was soaked. So I replaced the gasket with another edelbrock gasket thinking I goofed up. A few weeks later the same thing happened again. I pulled it a second time and used a fel pro 1266 gasket as suggested by the head manufacturer. I also purchased a new edelbrock 7101 RPM intake. It's been a couple months and now the truck is sitting in my driveway with the same problem.
Are any of you guys running these heads? if so, what intake/gasket combo are you using?
Thank you in advance for your help.
