Gents it’s been a while but on the home straight, I am looking for a sump gasket for a 2h engine anybody got one as I have a small leak
Regards john

Should be able to buy one if not cut one yourself just get the correct thickness and before you fit it in straighten the metal around each of the bolt holes so it doens't start leaking again. You need a flat surface for the gasket to seal correctly. If you over tighten it will leak and if you undertighten it will losen. I use gasket goo and stick the gasket to the pan then fit it with a dry topside of the gasket.

[AndycruiserguyLomas]

That engine's been on your drive a time or two in a previous life of mine Tony.

 

[chapel gate]

what make of paint did you use?

 

[tonytoyota]

Hi Andy that was a long-term ago hope you r well it was a front axle for a hj60 for the old off roader.

Gents I can’t believe I’m asking this as this car has fought me harder than any car, engine number two in all sorted intercooler turbo etc , took the car out for a blast pulls well the problem is it’s pressurising the water system, I already know the answer to this but on these engines apart from a crack in the block would there be any other reason for this before I pull the engine for a third time and replace the block ?

 

[Hemi]

All finished, a mixture of two engines combining in a fully reconditioned engine block decked etc , runs so so smooth and not even a hint of smoke very happy until something else takes a dump

 

[Iwan]

Looking good there! Did you tee into the oil pressure sender to get the oil supply to the turbo?

 

[Hemi]

Yes and return into the side plate of the block , afternoon of driving up and down , pulls very well but when not under load ie changing gear puff of smoke ie fuelling issue or turbo ?
