Default More Pics and updates

Thanks everyone for the kind words, couldn't have done it by myself without the help from the Lat-G site......Couple set backs over the holidays with the damn Covid and an oil leak. Regardless we're all healthy again but It appears i'm pulling the engine to address an oil leak at the rear seal plate. its not much of a leak but big enough i can't ignore and i'm not willing to go to the track with it. It's totally my fault when the car was getting paint i wanted to inspect the bearings and i never "re dabbed" with silicone in the corners where the seal plate and oil pan join. Here's some more pics.

Good observation....yes its a PRC core support but with a Ron Davis radiator. I used the PRC hood latch, however just looking at it, it's a common VW latch just modified to work with the camaro.

Looks like the PRC shroud too? I like that set up, still debating between this an Autorad if I can get one. Seems they are the only two with aluminum core supports, at least in my searches.

Nope, it’s a Ron Davis shroud.
