Tis, The oil pan gasket, rocker cover gasket and lifter cover gasket could all be contributing to oil loss as well as worn rings and valve guides. Replacing a rear main seal on the crank MAY stop oil from leaking there, but there is no guarantee unless the crank itself is in good shape where the seal rides. Another possibility is that the seals in the front of the transmission case need replacing too. Some folks use Hy-tran in the transmission as well as the hydraulics as this is what it was designed for (the Hy-tran, that is). This will sometimes cause seals to leak that would hold back 90EP gear lube. I would start by cleaning everything up where the leaks show and see if you can determine exactly what is leaking and go from there. Good luck, Phil
