Hello, I would like to insure (as much as possible) that the new 3.4 build does not leave too
many puddles on the floor. I have the Haynes Manual and would like to know what you would
recommend in addition to the information in there for preventing leaks at all the new seals--heads,
oil pan, front crank, rear main, etc.
Thanks for your help!

Only one I had on mine was at the rear "valley" in the center of the intake manifold. Mine was a new crate engine, and I installed the Edelbrock intake and Bill Guzman's top section.
Don't forget the O ring on the distributor!.
If the engine has mileage on it, check the rotating surface of the front seal.
If the crank has a groove worn in it, it can be Speedi-sleeved to get a new surface for the seal to run on.

Had to do this with my Rover V8.
