Well Done

Way to keep the racing heritage of these wonderful cars alive Kentetsu, I don't know how you keep all those cones straight. Looks like a blast, I'm going to try auto-x at zoomfest Road Atlanta if my car co-operates.

Another update. Just passed four thousand miles and six races and all is well. Absolutely no issues with the coolant seal. I hope there are others out there who can benefit from this information.

This stopped a drip-drip-drip oil leak (1 qt/1000 miles) to essentially nothing. Never did rebuild that engine.
Which Lucas product did you use? I may try the same.
