    You could also try inlarging the breather, Modify the cover and install a large AN fitting and hose

      Have you got too much blow by for the venting to be adequate? Even without blowby a restricted vent will blow out seals due to heat expansion. I've seen this over and over again with transport differentials, somebody will replace leaking axle seals and they'll blow out again because they didn't clean the differential vent.

        It seems failing paper base gaskets have clogged oilways causing irrepairable damage to the heads.
        A second reason for me to use a metal gasket was that I had to compensate for a milled cylinder to get correct piston to head clearance.
        I now have two copper base gaskets, I used Loctite gasket spray when mounting them and have no problems with leaking oil.
