RE: coolant out of the valve cover
elaborate? if your talking a couple drops under the oil fill cap that can be condensation and is perfectly OK. if you really have a leak somewhere check your dipstick and see if its milky colored

RE: coolant out of the valve cover
thatsy im confused. the car seems to be running great. the oil is normal color. when i rev it up past about 5k there is a little stream that leaks between the valve cover and the head.

wtf[&:]
maybe intake gasket leaking where the coolant passages are at the front and rear or the heads..... building up pressure causing the gasket to leak a little.

when you pressurize the system the car is off. they sell kits that hook up to the radiator and pressurize the system with air from a compressor. if you have a leak it will force it out where ever the leak is
