[QUOTE="SlipperySnake, post: 16837887, member: 132229"] I might also add that the first time when I had done the leak down and compression test I created a metal plate that goes over one intake runner port at a time with a threaded quick connect tapped into it and also drilled holes for the bolting locations at the head. Used the stock gasket and bolts to attach it to several intake ports. Pressurized them up with intake valves fully closed and sprayed oil over the valve stem seal/guide areas of each corresponding cylinder looking for bubbles. Nothing... That was shocking to me. Of course the stem seal was still in place, I would think if it was loose enough then air would have came through the tolerance there. Especially at 50-75 psig or whatever I had it at. [/QUOTE]
