Good evening all... Well today was a kind of a crappy day... On the highway at about 60mph I noticed white smoke bellowing out the back... I immediately pulled over and checked under the hood, I noticed oil sprayed all over the engine cover and passenger side of the car, not good... I had no warnings from the engine light or cell, temp, oil pressure were both good and the dip stick was full, so I gingerly drove her home... I am thinking it is the front seal, which will mean a rebuild...... Any ideas what else it might be?... Thanks all,

Hey David, I could use some of your pain killers and a scotch right about now...... I haven't had a chance to get my rockers on yet... I couldn't tell where the oil is coming from, but am going to the performance shop in the morning and find out... If it is a rebuild, I would love to source out an L67, but, they don't ship to Canada... ... Worse comes to worse, I'll have the L36 rebuilt and shave down the heads, maybe even port and polish them and the intake... There goes my Turbo plan...... One thing for sure, she will rise again, no matter what...

The pain meds are quiet effective damien. Im pretty sure it says not to mix them with alchohal. That sucks for sure, might be nice to get an L67 built, lose turbo but get a nice supercharger on their. You might be able to figure it out with ZZP to build and ship one to you, they might even be able to build it for smaller Pulleys.

So sorry to hear about your engine problem, but I like your attitude.
