I had the valves redone and I replaced all headbolts when I reinstalled the head. As I was turning the engine over by hand to start the rocker arm adjustments, I noticed a very slight leak on the drivers side just above the the center intake/exhast manifold area. It appears to be coming from the new head gasket. It is a Felpro replacement gasket. I did clean the block prior to installing the gasket and did a progressive torqueing on the head bolts. It is presently torqued to 90lbs. Any ideas? I really don't want to pull the head back off if I don't have to.
