Finally got some time yesterday to track down my coolant leak. Blew a frieze plug on the front of the motor.
 Anybody have any ideas as to WHY? Kalina put them in, maybe I should go after him. I suppose his "not garunteed against leaks" will cover him there.  This car is really starting to piss me off.

I've got an ACT 2100 in it now, I think either the disk got oil on it while it was out of the car and in waiting, or it just needs some break in time with the freshly machined flywheel. Only time will tell for sure, but if I do anything, I'm concidering puting a 6 puck disk in it... $75 from buschur.
I was waiting on the porting until I got a 2g exhaust maifold, and to see if everything else was ok (turbo). I'd really love to get an o2 eliminator downpipe, and a 16g to solve that problem, but that's definately gotta wait.  I did stop my oil leak in the valve cover, and the coolant seems to be holding for now also. At least I can drive it!! -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....
