        Mine always had a leak when i had it. I assumed it was the rear main so I went ahead and replaced it, only to find the rear main didn't leak, and it was actually the very back of the oil pan gasket. I opted not to pull the engine to lose the occasional drop of oil.

          Just do a heads/cam swap and hit it with a 100 shot of nitrous;)


          That killed mine real good.

            No leaks that I know of right now, but the oil pan gasket did leak before I fixed it.

                100 shot has been discussed recently. i think the tranny would give first though, its been on its last leg for a minute now, ive just been waiting for it to just go already for 3 months. wish it would give up already so i can dump this pile of cash, **** is burning a hole in my pocket and if it doesnt go soon im buying another tv i dont need lol

                          Had one, got it fixed a few years ago. Was leaking at the back of the intake manifold. Thought it was the oil pan. Took it to the shop b/c I didnt' feel like changing the o/p gasket, they found out it was the intake leaking. cost more to fix that than the oil pan. 314,000 miles and proud to say no oil spots in the driveway.
