Kristen had a small oil leak and I finally got around to hunting it down. The oil pan gasket had pushed out and torn from the looks of the underside quite a while ago. It not much of a leak but enough to make a mess on the garage floor so while I am off this week I decided to fix it. I have a friend who is going to teach me how to pull the motor so I can do this kind of stuff at home easier.

While the motor is coming out anyway I decided to add some other bits that would go in much easier with it out.


New rear main seal
New oil pan gasket with steel core
BBK chrome headers
Underdrive pulleys
"Mustang powered by ford" valve covers in black

Other pics I took today while IO had it out to better show its starting condition, all pics should be clickable.






Open to other suggestions about what should go in. Thinking about a windage tray while the pan is off.
