Hey good luck fixing that oil leak. I've tried 3-4 times with my oil pan and even with an oil pan brace. I'm just going to wait till i get my new motor.

I'll see what i can do though...

The more seat time the merrier I think. Not sure if I will make it out then because I'm hoping my Delrin bushings will be in and then I will be doing the overhaul of quite a few suspension bits with some friends and family. Car should be ready for the autox and track after that if I can find out where my oil leak problem is coming from. I'm hoping it's just overspill from the oil change and brake cleaner I took to the engine bay....wishful thinking at best...

Nice!! I'm finally done with my exam and have time to work on my car, but still waiting for some more parts. Don't forget to pre-register (makes everything easier and faster the day of) if you're going to participate. If not I still would like to see that 7 of yours. See you the 18th!
