well feeling like it was an excuse to get a new motor i realy got in there
and was told to check the pump drive and the way it leaked it wraped
around the front and back to make it look like complete seal failure.
so i took the top apart to get to the drive and sure enough the pool
of oil all around, pulled it out and bought the ring seal from gm for $1.50,
the old seal was as hard as ceramic not plyable, replaced the seal and
would you believe not a drop of oil for a wk now, and it was losing
a qt a wk, $1.50, cleaned the engine, no new crate engine, no new
performance cam, but i pocketed $1,200.00 minus $1.50 (my wife
said i could keep $500. bucks for my nova project whooo woo) man
i realy can't believe a dam small seal would solve the problem, but
I still might get the perfomance cam :lol: :wink: 8)
