Do you know how to post pictures Greaser? If so, you do it the same way but put the address of the picture in the signature block in your preference.

No, not yet. The drive line adapter he ordered was the wrong one, so we are waiting for that.

Yep,
I think I got my oil leak fixed though. I will find out for sure this weekend.
When I took off my intake, you could see parts of that silicone bead that wasnt even compressed.There was a gap on the back side big enough to stick the end of a flat head screw driver thru :frown: Its no wonder I blew out almost 5 quarts of oil over the weekend.if you put it on there like i was telling ya you should have the leak stoped,,if it squeezed out the back and looks kinda bad wait and let it cure for a few days and trim it off with a razor blade. tell ya you've done some nice work on that engine since i saw it last at indian lodge,,looking real sharp :D

Copy that!! I ordered some of those high falutin copper header gaskets today. Should have 'em by the weekend... Maybe I'll have a little $ left over so I can put some gas in it & see how good those gaskets work... :D

You mean that Copper-Coat stuff? or is there a high heat silicone in a tube(RTV)? Hell, the header I took off is outside in the back a my truck.... I guess I could check that out right now.

I guess I could check that out right now.yea kenny the high heat rtv silicone! its orange or red depending on the brand. my first taylor ss had logs on it and it leaked all the time till a guy showed me that trick! thats been years ago and i've been doing it since and to this day i havent had a problem...

Oh yea fellas i burned up some fuel..LOL.. But hey I bought a boat and put that engine in it to run the crap out of it.. LOL.. at least my dad was there with me to go in half on the gas cause man ole man it was a bunch. You guys dont have to SWEET talk me to get a ride, just come and jump in. We need to meet up again this weekend. Let me know where.

I went out a few minutes ago, laid a piece of alum. flat bar across it. Everything looks good. I couldn't get any header gaskets here in town(don't get me started!) so I figured if I was gonna have to order out of the catalog, I'd splurge. Jeg's sells these:
http://www.jegs.com/photos/7207150.jpg
Embossed Solid Copper
Embossed O-ring gasket design increases sealing pressure around exhaust ports to create a tight, leakproof seal, even on irregular surfaces. Made from long lasting .043 solid copper, these gaskets will not shrink, deteriorate or blowout, so gasket leaks are eliminated!
Hope they do the trick!!
