Re: [T3] Mofoco heads problems....

["Jim Share" <badvw@nts-online.net>]

<x-charset iso-8859-1>I bought a longblock from the last June (1776 project streetwise) and have
logged about 13K miles on it in my '67 Westy. The only problem I had was
about a month ago before we went to Albuquerque for the Busses & Balloons
festival. The rear main seal would leak when it got warmed up real good.
I love the engine and would recommend it to anyone.
