Ok, for just a little bit of time, and only on cold starts, I get a squirt of
antifreeze on the drivers side headers when I start the engine. It immediately goes away and does not occur on a warm start. I talked with the engine builder and his advice was to re-torque the head. I have no
antifreeze in the
oil and the engine runs fine. The engine builder indicated also that stainless steel gaskets may work better as they were not available in 2006 when the engine was built. I plan to talk with the engine builder next week as I am thinking if re-torquing the head does not work, I will need to replace the head gaskets. I don't mind doing the work, I just want to make sure I do it right. It's hydraulic and has no valve lash setting, so am I wrong in thinking I just remove the rocker bar allowing access to the head bolts, torque them, and then retorque the rocker bar and see if it leaks?
