general type question

I have a newly rebuilt 350 done by the best shop in my area. I have a HSR intake on it that I put on and used good silicone gasket maker on all the surfaces that mate with the heads and block. Made extra shure that I got a good seal so there would be no oil leaks. Used good quality intake gaskets also. The engin has 2000 miles on it and ever since I have been running it I get oil seeping from every seal on it. Expcially around the intake . I dot understand why and cant seem to stop it. I have good crank case ventilation so I dont thin its getting a lot of crank case pressure. Oil look clean, dosent seem to get any blowby into crank case. Any body expeianced this before? Thanks

Check the tpi section. There are lots of posts on the stealth ram. Including a few that talk about how there were a couple different manifolds made, and some of them are known to warp.

not sure what you used RTV on, but you wouldn't want it on coated gaskets like the intake or head. you'd want liquid tefelon sealer on the intake bolts and head bolts plus all the oil plugs.
