Dealership + performance mod's = shitty results

Find a reputable shop and stop taking your car to the dealer.

thats what im doing from now on. Usally i go to a place called Oregans because theres a mechanic that works on my car 95% of the time and doesnt care about my aftermarket stuff, he still uses my warrenty. But lately the people there are getting more and more retarded

And to answer your above question, no. AC Delco plugs would not cause this issue, neither would to hot/cold plugs. The plug is not the problem.

To Borrow an Image from another thread... The gasket that is leaking is the piece around the plug hole that looks like 2 circles joined together...

k, thanks stroker, hopefully i can still pull it off saying the plugs caused it and they will fix the damn thing free of charge. If they do charge me it looks like something i can do, what is the rubber oring called again? And if you know the part number that would be 1000x better.

I think you've got to buy the whole gasket to get them. Mine started leaking immediately after i discovered a loose spark plug, so I would argue with them that the loose plug was the cause and torched the gasket.

If yo have to fix it, here's a link

It's a valve cover gasket kit, not sure if you can get those seals separately though.

If the car is still under warranty that will help, however the modifications you have done will be a problem. I am interested to see where this goes.
Just a note: with 60lb injectors and meth injection there is no way they'll do warranty work on that engine.

Yes I know that thank you. however im on the phone with them right now and it sounds like they are paying for all the damage because they f*cked up somewheres, either when they were fixing the blown up plugs or by putting the wrong type in.
