Cranked Over The New Motor...
for the first time today. Finally got the new block started and am having a couple of issues.
1. Leaking coolant from the driver sideintake gasket. No coolant in the engine oil or from the exhuast, just near the thermostat. I torqued the bolts to spec and in the proper sequence. I even cranked them a little more. Has anyone had to torque them even more? I don't want to risk cracking the manifold.
2. I have a D1SC Procharger unit. Where do I tap into a vacuum line for the blow-off valve. The line I tapped isn't getting any vacuum at idle.
3.Can't put it into gear while the car is running. When the car is off I can put it into gear, even w/out engaging the clutch.
Any suggestions?
