i have an issue.

it started with a stuck valve which prompted a head swap. i went from 888 heads to 882. after that a lifter collapsed which i pulled it apart again

then i found oil at the bottom of the intake under the carb. also found oil in the runners all the way to all the plugs

. i used metal shim gaskets coated with 4 coats of copper sealer.

not sure what to try next. is it the heads? is it the head gaskets?

need help.
