lol, i was thinking maybe sc51 used a different screen name to upload, and i was going to say his engine went down surprisingly fast. I am glad it was a semi-jack and not sc51's gte block.

* Update Had her running for a while warming things up, ran nice and smooth. But unfortunately Its leaking a little oil out the Damn front donut seal This time around I had a hell of a time installing it 20 degrees here thing was like a rock to put in (no flex) so it had the slightest dent in it.

O well at least its fixed for the most part, wait for a new seal and maybe attempt with hair dryer

Man she looks sexy as hell! Too bad about the seal, but I'm sure you'll get it straight. I cant wait to go single, but it will be a while.

Haha thanks man, ya I never drove it twin I just threw the single off the na-t to clear up space!

quickGS300 Looks great man , what kind of fan are you running?

Thank You, ya I'm running 2 slim lines, and I used the union bolt off my na-t setup and just used that setup to get it running. I do want to hide that line tho. I'll prob have a different line made to go straight to block.

Alright Final update with this thread Engines back together for the 3rd time, had it running for an hour or so with no leaks so far.

Looks like im done with the engine for now, I can just focus on getting the Transmission together
