    Builds Ole Blue 60 gets a fresh start- EFI and more

    Tw gave me a similar experience with a bad joint. Love that company.

    Tw is very good to talk with for damage assessment if you're interested in that. I talked with them about an odd failure I had and they were very helpful. If the tube got smacked though, I bet it also warped/bent the ujoint cross. That would then cause the needle bearings to wear out real fast...

    They have a decent selection of high quality joints. I've been a woody user for a bunch of years now, highly recommend using them.

    There's supposed to be a bit of rtv/fipg in the corners of the oil pan gasket when you install it.

    If it's the hex plug version, some pipe dope or Teflon tape maybe? I'd be hesitant to weld on it, hard to get a good weld with all that oil soaked metal. Either way, interested to see what you find.

    Still could be. Not many places for oil to leak out down there. Side cover, rear of valve cover, Welch plug / hex plug, rear main, oil pan.

    Rear Welch plug maybe. Not the freeze plug visible in the pic, the Welch plug that's farther up above the crank on the driver side of the rear of the block.

    ^ that. My post would have made more sense @wngrog if the picture showed up instead of a link. The section of the bolt that goes through the bracket should be shouldered. Having threads in that connection will make it sloppy and make it wear out over time. It's usually difficult to find...

    It would be ideal for both sides of that bolt-through bag mount to be riding on the shoulder of the bolt, instead of one side riding on the threads. The holes are sized for the shoulders more than likely, as the shoulder is slightly larger in OD than the threads. Furthermore, the threads will...

    How many PSI is "low pressure"? Remember that the filter in question operates under slight vacuum in the OEM application, not under any pressure at all.

    Looks like the filter collapsed under vacuum from being clogged. If the EFI pump is upsream from this, feeding this filter, then it collapsed under pressure, but I'd bet your EFI pump is fed by this filter.

    Maybe put an airdam of some sort in front of it?

    That thermo housing is thrashed. Need a spare? Might have one in the parts stash. Might be able to get away with putting JBWeld on the pitting and smoothing it out. That thing looks like it's trying to start a coolant leak :lol: Valve cover and inspection cover look like new!
