ok ok im back into the swing of things.. project was sidetracked with leaks on the new motor.. first the rear main seal, then the oil pan gasket.. all has been repaired.. couple pics. not many as of yet.. more to come..



hunting down a d1 procharger now. taking my time.. and i got a new coolant overflow cover in polished chrome.. cant wait for that to arrive.. put my painted fuse box cover on, my new headlights, and ordered new bumper lights, and ill swap out the custom bowtie reflectors into them..

how did the main seal start leaking, isn't that a newly built motor?

Yes Holty is it.. however.. after it was installed and running.. found a big leak.. couldnt figure out where it was.. low and behold, turns out to be the seal....
oh, then after that leak was fixed, found the pan was leaking .. had to have that fixed as well.. she's dry now.. so now the project continues
