Talking Re: Jonathans RCR 40 Build

After the coolant I moved on to the oil system. I went to add a dipstick and that took a full day. The bung was obstructed. I though I could just bend the dipstick tube but the stick would not pass through the bends. That meant dropping the pan and welding in a new bung. Then I primed the oil system and discovered that my AN fittings were leaking. I ordered a replacement fitting from Sumit and the FedEx man left it on someone else’s porch. I finally got impatient and went to a local store to get the part and TODAY I STARTED THE ENGINE.

It absolutely sounds like no other car I have ever heard. I love the sound of the cross over pipes. It sounds like an indy car.
