Re: Need help with Holley Blue Pump

I know they used to sell rebuild kits, it had gaskets and maybe a screen. I think there is a seal above the impeller, which might be your problem and don't know if it is replacable. I had a blue pump with the same leak, figured it was time to upgrade. Walt. p.s. cool to see your car driving :thumb:

Re: Got new motor in.....but!

Man I just had the same thing happen with my new motor and a friends also, Barsleak cured the leaks in both. I've heard this is a common problem when using studs even with the recommended sealer. Walt

Re: Stock Wheel Tubs or Minis?

I run 275's on 8'' wheels with a 5.5'' backspace and they fit without moving the spring, but you have to move the shocks and work the inner wheeltub a little.
