    So, a faulty main shaft seal was the issue with the transmission leak. All fixed now. Just drove my back road country loop and all I can say is wow! This car is faster than my Signal Yellow ST I built which is hard to believe. The ST has more grip but the car sticks great on the P7's. All sorted now and just fun in the future. The engine is unreal. The GT3 crank is really what makes a 3.5L so good. It has torque from the bottom to the top. It just keeps pulling all the way to 8K! The short gears are the perfect combination to the engine. The Elephant 930 brakes are amazing, suspension is just right and when you need heat in the cabin which we do in Oregon the SSI's provide more than enough. I added the side rocker decorative trim and the wheel caps. Now, I'm wondering do I install the 3.5L engine grill badge or keep the stealth 2.4L one on? I think I might fill the exhaust hole on the rear bumper as well.
