5.7 lt-1
Hey guys I have been gone for awhile. I bought a 73 Challenger and have been in the (long) process of building it. Still a long way to go. In addition to that my wife and I are raising a 3 year old and at 63 and 57 that takes a lot of time and head scratching. You would think to second time around you would have all the answers but you dont. Anyway a totally different subject. I bought my dads last car, a 94 roadmaster 5.7 LT-1. Thought it would be great as a spare in case someone need a car while theirs was in the shop. Turned out to be a nightmare. The current issue is a big oil leak at the offset filter adapter plate. I have replaced the o ring and gasket twice and for some reason when we have a freeze it starts leaking again. I have checked the LT-1 site and have not found a solution yet. Just checking here to see if someone has had similar issues.
".......So sanded it all down and resprayed. ......" Been there. done that on a couple of paint jobs over the years. Usually took me a couple of days to get over being mad before I started...
