I'm working on a Customer Car that came in with an Oil leak in the front of
the Head.  I had completely rebuilt the Engine, Head was machined flat as
well as the Block surface.  I used ARP Head Studs and torqued them to OE
spec (65 ft. lbs.) I didn't re torque the Studs and there is 3000 miles
since the install.
 
Engine runs very well, no Oil in Water and doesn't appear to be any loss of
compression.  I'm going to re torque the Studs and clean up the area and see
what happens.  Anyone ever run across this?
