whenever fris can get the truck...
the oil feed and return lines you can actually get from the summit catalog, but i think you already ordered them. just pay attention to the feed line. if you got a -4, look into getting a restrictor. if you got a -3, you should be fine.

Okay so I just started my rebuild today. I got the motor opened up today, it was fun my motor was pretty clean. I found a stuck apex seal in the rear rotor. I guess that was the issue as to why it wouldn't start up. So the next thing is to buy some gaskets and put it all together just before SS9.
