Brake Fluid Absorbs moisture.
leaving the cap off for extended periods is not a good idea.
altho not as important in a road car compared to a track car it can cause problems when there gets to much (3 to 4%) water
Good to hear its now running. cant wait to see some finished pics as it leaves

Thanks to the couple who post about the brakes. Found the problem, Master cylinder was some how sucking air , so changed that out and gave it a tune. Then put the bottom plates on ( sump bash plate and the 2 side plates).

Man that's unlucky, maybe you can claim warranty on the master cylinder is it a new one? Or did you hone the bore and install a seal kit in an existing one?

We can only build what we are asked to build. The motor rebuild was $1,400 and done by EJH,jackugly wrote:can I ask why you opted for a rebuild on the motor instead of a ej upgrade which seems to be the normal/recommended on this site??
what was the cost and who did you get to do the work?
any special requirements on the rebuild?

Yes we have . Added the receipts up and come up with well above book value. As labor is free. Labor is our way to give back to the public for looking after us. Total cost will only be posted if the owner allows it.2coupedup wrote:nice work guys... did you come up with a total cost for the project???
