Hi guys,
Had a 1958 engine rebuilt by a machine shop in CA. that has a great reputation. The 348 runs like a top but is leaking oil on the garage floor.
My mechanic has not had it up on the lift yet and I have tightened the oil pan and valve cover gaskets. I’m unable to find the source of the leak and am soliciting suggestions please. This is my first 348 and I am hearing that the rear main is probably the source. Has anyone else had this issue and if so, what was your fix.
many thanks!
Jim
