well......MY dumbass thought i could redrill 2 hole to mount the oil cooler with it hangin by the back two mounts....WRONG haha.....i always seem to learn the hard way, now....i test ran the motor today.....what started as a slow drip....turned into a thin steady stream 13 minutes into the test run....i kept an eye on the oil gauge throughout the remaining few minutes...now it seems to be the rear main seal i think , im about to remove carbs and fan shroud to inspect the stock oil cooler first. SHE RAN....just leaks....lol

he broke in the engine this morning and found several leaks, we pulled the engine and couldnt tell where it was coming from so we pulled the galley plugs and loctited them and replaced the crank seal, it wasnt until we started to go back with the flywheel that we figured out where the leak came from.
the o-ring wasnt in the flywheel, we installed the engine and it doesnt appear to be leaking anywhere.
there is an exhaust leak and the carbs need to be tuned.

Thanks Mike for stopping by and helping and James for the techinical stuff

:thumbs: Mental note: don't set endplay and install flywheel in a rush!

Did you guys have a torque multiplier to use?
