My main concerns are the oil leaks,bushes and engine mounts.Get them done and I will hopefully have it on the road for my birthday

Finished fitting my new bushwacker flatties.
Got the fronts done on saturday in 2 hours before work then the rear 2 this afternoon in acouple of hours aswell.
I couldnt be happier with the fit, no need to file edges for a better fit, they all lined up with the body lines perfectly. I dont see how anyone could possibly stuff it up unless you slip bad with the cutting disc, the instructions are real clear and easy to understand.
Ill get acouple of pics up tomorrow it was too dark when i finished tonight.

Yehaa, after late nite and early morning wet wrenching I managed to properly seal oil pan drain plug. I had to remove someones earlier attempt at trying to recoil the thread with copper/steel wire? seems like over kill to me but I managed to remove it and the new drain plug went straight in. I don't know how I didn't see it earlier, I guess I was to busy just trying to get the oil pan to seal. Thanks again Wooders/Colin for your help. Above and beyond the call of duty again.

Bugger, forgot all about them

Undecided, yes I am aware that the oil leaking from the oil filter adapter drips off the bell housing and can resemble a rear main leak.Gonna fix the oil filter adapter first, wash down the bell housing with degreaser and leave it for a few days and recheck the area before I go booking it in for the rear main.Thanks for letting me know though
