    Transmission removal process

    Gents, I believe I've got a leak under my new throw out bearing or the input seal. I thought it was just brake fluid dripping from the clutch pipe seal but it looks like oil is getting thrown back on subframe and exhause each time I run it a bit. It'll leak for a few days after and then stop...

    Jug's Goblin #420 Build! - 2009 SS/TC donor, Ext/Open Frame, San Antonio TX.

    This has been quite possibly one the most rewarding things I've ever accomplished. I got the donor from Copart on March 15, 2022 so about a 2 and a half year build but I took about an eight month break in there when I got fairly frustrated with the build and life things, so in reality a little...

    Bell housing leak

    Gents, I installed a new throw out bearing and new clutch when I first installed the engine. I'm trying to bleed the clutch and brakes and developed a leak I think in the bell housing. It doesn't look like it's dripping from the outside on top. Any ideas what I need to tighten down or...

    Brass elbow into master cylinder

    Gents, I'm trying to seal up the brass elbows with red locktite. All of them started leaking when I tried to pressure bleed. I bought new elbows from DF and not sure if thread sizes are correct. They will only thread about three to four rotations before seizing up. Is this how they are...

    Gents, I have the aftermarket aluminum shifter and the Corbeau FX1 seats. The shifter cables hit the outside ridge of the seat when I put it in first or second. Would it be best to remove cover of seat and trim back the plastic edge of seat?? Thanks! And also when installing rivnuts to the...

    Gents, All four of the brake master cylinder brass fittings kept leaking and I thought the tighter you twist they would make a seal. I of course dorked them up trying to remove them once I found that you are supposed to put red locktite on those threads to prevent the leaks. Does anyone have a...

    Apologies in advance but I have a dumb question on when do the side mirror white lights turn on? I was able to get the left and right yellow turn signals to work but didn't know how or when the other two white lights turn on. I tried running through all the light switches positions. I just...

    Jug's Goblin #420 Build! - 2009 SS/TC donor, Ext/Open Frame, San Antonio TX.

    Well, I got some rough news today. I bought the car through copart and on the site it said that it had only 89K miles on it. The battery was cut out of the car so I was never able to confirm milage. I was just able to connect the battery and it shows 149K miles on it!!!! I'm a bit...

    Alright I think I found it!!! This red wire is labled PUMP so I'm pretty sure that goes to the intercooler. My second question in the pic above. What does this connector with the red wire go to and secondly, what attaches to that electronic piece going to the brake booster? Thanks again...

    Jug's Goblin #420 Build! - 2009 SS/TC donor, Ext/Open Frame, San Antonio TX.

    Gents, Does the purple accessory power wire go to the red wire on the intercooler pump? Also, where exactly does the ground go. Do I just screw it into the frame somewhere or does it go somewhere back into the fuse box? Sorry, I'm really not good at the electrical stuff on this. I...
