| Mark: I drill 6 places and tap for 8-32 screws. One in each corner and one on each side about midway front to back. Be careful of these two holes, there are small webs cast in the block under there, and if you hit one of those you'll have a heck of a time getting them tapped.

| Mark: I drilled mine through, never gave it a thought to make them blind holes. Either way would work.

Mark,
I used John's method (from his Y-Block Mag. article) AND used black RTV (no gasket). No leak in 50K miles. But, since I have a straight NOS valley cover for the new motor, I MAY eliminate the screws and use only red RTV this time (silicon just won't hold paint).
