might of found my problem.. not sure..

well some of you know how my car is running bad and stuff. I was taking off the spark plug cover an wires to see if my plugs were gapped an stuff. I took off that cover and they were all in oil. I took off the plug wires and pulled them up and they dripped oil, then I pulled up the plugs and they were submerged in oil it appeared because the shit ran off my plugs.. anyway so here's what I did. I decided to get the following:

AC RACE CAM-SEALS
head gasket set
crank case gasket
place racing front crossmember w/ tranny mount
AEM CAI
apr head studs
65mm bullfrog gsr ported throttle body
aem fuel rail
walbro 255lph
B&M comandflow fpr
valve job, head milled/ported and polished, and ported intake

maybe ---> valves
maybe --->springs/retainers

I figured while I had my head off I might as well start replacing shit that I don't want to do again.. anyway you guys think this will fix my problem cause I had valve seals leaking and a nasty head gasket leak as well.

Man, you have no use for race cam-seals, or the head studs, or the fuel pump, fuel rail, an fpr. Also, valves and valvesprings - useless without cams.

The spark plug tubes are made of 2 pieces with a rubber grommet/seal in between the 2. Replace the rubbers & No more leaks. The throttle body, head work, & intake work will be nice! Might as well upgrade the cam(s) while your at it
