Picked up the rest (I hope) of the material to finish the spoiler....
Also picked up some drilled strapping, a piece of all thread, and cut up some spare PVC I had laying around to make a holding stand to paint the spoiler. It's redneck AF, I love it
looks good,anything you can do to make that task any easier.we've got some odd looking stands @ work,once you them in action though they make sense.gotta get creative to work comfortable/which builds confidence.nice job.
 
if that was a used pump and you replaced the gasket then it kinda had to be something you did since the pump worked before the gasket change... :popcorn:
Welp, it wasn't leaking before, from the crack, if it was there. Then after, it was. Maybe it was a fine hairline crack before hand, or I had the alternator belt too tight, one too many holeshots, idk. It's in the garbage now.

1320john$$$, Y'all about to make me cry here. 400 small blocks? As in Chev or Pontiac? My neighbour had a garage full of Pontiac 400's Raced them and built them. Come to find out he also had an orphan 400 Chevy block that had been intended to go in his late model. Never happened cause about that time he quit racing Too Much $$$$. So it sat and got dusty until he was forced to give up his house to go into an assisted living facility and it got laid on me Don't know what happened to the Poncho parts. I had no room at the time, so his kid got it all and probably sold most of it for scrap. Have never seen any of those parts at a swap meet locally, so who knows? The Chev 400 turned out to be a 4 bolt, never bored, and now resides on my engine stand under a blanket of plastic bags to keep it clean and rust free. I spray it down with Deep Creep or Fluid Film periodically to keep it preserved from the creeping rusties. Would like to build it but as always, Either no time or no budget. Oh well.
