Bought a project and have my hands full. Just replaced the bottom end on my 302 (69) block w 65 289 heads on it. Rear main seal is new. Started and ran for a few mins w no oil leaks at all...but, trans fluid is dripping at a fast pace from the inspection pan area. One or two drips a second from an area 4" long along the bottom center of the inspection cover. Thin softball sized puddle in 60secs.
Any ideas? I'm hoping torque converter plug is lose but thinking front seal in transmission has been compromised. Thoughts? Suggestions? And how difficult or costly to fix? Thanks in advance for any help.
