Default RE: Oil Leak from head gasket

Damn i forgot about coming back to update yall. Its kind of stupid actually. Well like i said im not all that familiar with the find details of these motors. Some one said on here to check the dipstick. I did that several times and it wasnt leaking. Here is the funny part. The pan is aftermarket and the dipstick is in the pan not the block. So where the original dipstick should have been is where there is a big gapping hole that oil is sloshing out of. THe hole is not visible from the top because fo the header and from below you cant see the hole there. Well at least its fixed. Now to the tunning.
we dynoed it last weekend. WOW. 8 psi of boost and its got 452 torque and 451 horsepower. The torque curve is damn flat to. This thing is a beast. I think with a 12 psi pully and a new intanke pump( the old one is bad and leaning the car out pretty bad) we'll see over 500hp.Not to shabby.
Thanks for yalls help. And if yall know anything about T-birds check out my post for it. Im going to build a motor and want to put it in a T-bird (anyone from 83-93or so) but need to know about stuff like swaps available and suspension available. Are they the same suspension set up as stangs. What about swaping a manual into it.
