hey people,
just wondering if anyone can help me out? I put a vtr engine into my westy a few months back and have had it of the road gettin other bits done but i'm now getting her sorted for MOT and i've discovered this prob. the temp gauge is showin 3/4 which i think is high as it should only be reading half but when i'm driving the oil is bubbling out and leaking pretty bad from under the rocker cover gasket. I put a new gasket on cos the old one was in pretty bad shape but its still doing it and i was wondering if its cos the car is maybe heating up to much? :wall:

any help on this is gratefully appreciated as i wud like to get the car out on the road. cheers
