Good 1st run
Hi Harry
Great to see your restoration coming along so nicely. Did you find any oil leaks?
Also great to put face with a name.
Years ago I got to this stage with my C60S Pattern 13 and no leaks then I took it out on the road and it started leaking oil from the rear main at the rate a quart every three miles. But that engine looked so clean when dropped the pan, valve covers that I just cleaned the pan new gaskets and filled it with oil. Turned out the rear main sealing surface was pitted hence the oil leak. Pulled the engine had just the seal surface ground, everything else mic up as being stock. It was a very low mileage truck. Now have learned that if rear seal are can be sleeved which works even better than having it ground.
Look forward to seeing the next steps.
Cheers Phil
