Made a wood bulkhead plate made so as not to have need to drill any holes in the car. Auto Meter bradded oil line (Part No. 3236) plumbed to the facia. Will replace the OEM electric oil pressure gauge with a Auto Meter (Part No. 8121). J B Weld to the rescue again. Oil head with metal clad hand cut gasket fitted. The two timing cover through oil plan studs were also leaking so I made an attempt to stop that and found that perhaps the oil is leaking from the top of the studs on the cover? Used the double nut locking method to install studs. New NIN's, copper washers and Petmatex No. 1 used trying to stop every leak. Double checked SU float bowl drains. Advise about what may be causing leaks.. the block vent screen can cause too much crankcase pressure. Going to start and check everything on the next video but need just one more fitting - like any plumbing job. How many Auto Meter stickers can one car hold?
