Well I finally got Nothin' Special down to 1 oil leak-- the banjo bolt in the top of the valve cover where the oil line feeds into the engine. And she's a big leak. Seems the threads came out with the banjo bolt.
My options:
1. Permatex Stripped Thread Repair
2. Time-Sert, Helicoil or some other type of insert.
3. Bore hole out bigger, tap, install a 90 degree brass elbow and replace existing steel oil lines with braided steel or rubber oil line.
4. Call Hugh.
5. Your thoughts?
And finally, can I do the repair without removing the engine from the frame?
