Re: Lucky #13...Back in the saddle....92 rt/tt

Project took a step sideways last night. With 155,800 miles on the motor, it spun a bearing. We heard a slight clank after a pull to where power was dropped down, thought it may have been the TOB being a little loose as tension on the slave cylinder was weak, and then did another quick pull to check. Well that pull resulted in a smoke screen, hole in the oil pan, and probably the need for a 4-bolt upgrade.

With this amount of miles, I am not disappointed, just a forced upgrade to a 4 bolt motor. Still plan on going to the proving grounds to support John LaCroix's Galant, and hopefully will hit the track with this car end of season.

Plus side is the car was making 368hp@4300rpm and 480tq!
