[RustyRatRod]

Great benno. Sounds nice.

 

[benno440]

thanks all for the support, I did notice a few small drops of oil on the ground dropping from the bellhousing, I am hoping that it will fix it self once I get the extremely light weight run in oil out and the good stuff in

Sounds great and man I love those gauges! I just hope your rear main isn't leaking...that is always a pain in the ***!

yeh me too about a month ago I started it and it dropped 3 litres from same place so I dropped pan and replace rear main and it didn't leak until now, hopefully it fixes itself, near ready to sell and buy a crate hemi lol

Sounds sweat, glad to see you got it running now I want to see you get a little sideways with it haha. How did you seal the crank seal cap? My Felpro gasket kit cam with a tube of silicone and these weird wicks, they said to fill the grooves with silicone (after installed), dip the wicks in water and shove them into the groove with the silicone to help it fully cure. So far mine isn't leaking.

I bought the mancini o-ring billet seal kit, has 2 o ring type rubber that curve all the way around the holder, heard a lot of good things about it, the oil dripping could also be that there is a puddle of oil sitting there since I last changed out the rear main as it dropped 2 litres a few months back so I dropped pan and redid seal. HOPEFULLY
