*Update* Things went slower then planned (what's new with a project like this uhh?) But anyway were set to fire it up this weekend and provided things go well I'll drive her home and let her recover from the operation  Sunday night expect a review if all goes well! Wish us luck!

BAD NEWS!!! No excuses... I forgot the friggin REAR MAIN SEAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Upon start up, oil poured from the trans to engine mate up area... First I thought we'd hurt the slave cylinder by pressure bleeding it, or bending the hydrolic clutch line to clear the Vortech bracket, but NO!!! Upon closer inspection, it turns out to be engine oil... Rear main seal is still in the package. The good news is that we only ran the engine a very short while and the amount of oil loss was minimal enough to save the engine. Rear main seal... I still can't believe it!

Quick everyone, point and laugh  , it may be one of our few chances to kick him when he's down. Unlike me on the other hand I make sure I do several grandly stupid things a year just so everyone can point and laugh!
