Not Ranked
Yeah, it's leaking again. Put some dye in to check it out. It appears to be seeping in several spots but it is particularly bad at the rear of the pan,and I get drips down the flex plate. The clutch is fine and the inside of the bell housing is dry so I don't think it is the main seal, but I have to check it again closely.
Sort of pisses me off because I was so careful last time. Made sure the (Aviaid) pan flange was flat, cleaned everything meticulously, and used Permatex gasket cement to glue Milodon gaskets to windage tray and then Right Stuff on the other side of each gasket. I then used Canton studs all around and once I torqued them down a couple of heat cycles I added another nut to each stud to lock the primary nut.
But it still leaks. Someone told me the Canton studs tend to loosen but the ARP ones are better. Not sure how different they could be but the locking pattern on the nuts *could* be different.
