Re: 350 Freshin Up
You don't need to pull the heads to fix any oil leaks. The heads have no oil passages in them. The intake valley is prolly leaking. Also check the oil pressure sending unit to see if it is leaking.
Doing any headwork (even a valve job with new seals) is a waste of time and money on any high mileage engine. You'll be huffin' oil smoke out the tail pipe as it sucks oil past the worn out rings into the combustion chamber.
