The flywheel bolts were all sealed. The main cap was also sealed. So was the ends of the rear main seal halves.

It isn't.

The engine has Catrol 10W30 dino oil.
The tranny Valvoline MTF. Actually, most of the MTF is now inside the bellhousing and/or a puddle on the floor.

I didn't realize I was making that much power. I thought I was closer to 350/400. Assuming 20% drivetrain loss, that's 500hp/600tq. The T5z is only rated at 330.

So now I'm looking at a TKO600, Mcleod RST dual clutch, quicktime bellhousing setup. What's another $4k?
