Well it got me ,,, been working real hard on this car and finally drove it yesterday, after about 5 miles the smoke off the exhaust started. Seriously not felling like pulling this engine back out but dont think I can get the pan off while its in there. For the life of me I cant remember putting sealant on the retainer mating surface, it's probably it. F#*^ it.
Want a giggle ?? After pulling the box and finding a dry rear main I put it back in, for the next 5 days I replaced the -12 line, purchased and fitted new AN fittings only to wake up and think, "the f*ckin dip stick hole" . I have an aluminum pan that has the tube welded to the other side, I had forgotten that we last ran this engine with a different pan. Sooooo all my oil was coming up through the open dip stick hole in the block. IDIOT
