Depends on where it's coming from. If from the rear seal you might have clutch problems. Most anywhere else you will prolly be OK. Keep an eye on your oil pressure and temp and stop often to check oil level.

Load it with lucas and keep driving. Just check it a lot.
It holds 8 quarts.
I am sure this is the longest it has been at sustained RPMs in a long time. Thins out the oil and leaks begin.
Look and see where it is coming from after you stop for lunch and it cools a bit.
It may be the oil pan gasket. That is a common problem and can often be fixed by just snugging up all the bolts.

X2 on nolens comments. I've rarely gone longer than 30 mins at 45. Call if in trouble.

I love that BUT will he take $8k? Seriously doubt it! Gonna let the moneytree fluff out a little more. HOWEVER that's the type shape I want one in!

Just trouble shooting. Clutch has never had a moments problem. I feel like its just the drain plug. But after running hard that long it could be a new development? Keep us posted Mike
--edit-- Dad said garage and driveway are clean so oil leak is hopefully just from distance and rpms. Mike is in lake Village

Above pic is where oil is pooling then dripping.
This is drain plug. Looks good.
Motor runs way better with clutch pushed in and reved up then when clutch is engaged and motor reved up.
Thinking clutch??
Clutch will not leak oil. Looks more like rear main seal. That's my uneducated guess.
Engine runs better with clutch disengaged because it has less parasitic drag on the motor. My 4Runner does the same thing.
EDIT: Or, could be from transmission. There's a seal there, too, right?

No, this will be far more entertaining in Mike's possession

Yea. Yea. Runs smooth as a top in 4th at 45 mph. Anything above that it seems like it labored or trying real hard.
Carb? Vacuum?

He won't let me. Lol. Don't really want too.
Carb tune should fix that "dead spot"
Do a seafoam spray can treatment. Follow directions on the can and run the bottles in the gas.
It's a starting point.

Well dead at the yellow jacket. Battery is totally dead.
Are you out of Rankin County yet?
I had similar symptoms and a huge oil leak that ended up being a bad fuel pump. There's a weep hole at the bottom of the fuel pump where oil will blow out at higher RPM's once the FP begins to die. It won't leak at idle.
Yeah, yank that carb and send it to the guru in California. Todd can provide you with his address and payment instructions.
Guess that's payback for the smack talking you were doing in the food thread
Hope you get your problem resolved!
