I finally got the money to finish my car up and get it on the road. Ive come accross several issues (as expected) but there are a couple things I can't figure out on my own.
First, tranny fluid is leaking out the tailshaft seal when I park on a hill, even just a small incline. It is a brand new tremec t-5 Tranny (1352-251 on the tag if it matters). The driveshaft is an aluminum ford racing unit that I purchased used. I already tried replacing the seal twice and it looks like it fits good
The other issue i'm having is the engine is burning some oil. I was looking for a bad cylinder or something but it seems i am just getting a lot of oil in the intake and then getting into the engine. I have an edelbrock intake so it has the removable cover and when i pulled it off oil drained out of it and is still puddled up in it. I have a new PCV and I cleaned the little screen out when I assembled the engine so I'm stumped
