Hey all, Well I've been working on this SR20DET install for about a month and a half now and it seems like after I fix one problem 2 more pop in it's place... kind of like fighting off Medusa! I was having oil pressure problems so I took off my oil pan and sure enough the pickup line was pressed into the pan... so no big deal just get a new pan and problem solved! But now that I have awesome oil pressure I found out a new problem. Oil is pouring out from behind my crankshaft pulley. My buddy and I took out the crankshaft pulley and thought it was just a seal but we discovered a HOLE in my front cover.... it's pretty damn big, enough to put your pinky in there. Anyhow, it looks like I'm going to have to buy a new front cover. Any idea how that could have happened?? Just some background, we replaced the crank pulley with an unorthodox pulley when we started this project.
On to what I really wanted to talk about. When we were in there we discovered I somehow lost my woodruff key and this metal circle thing that guides the seal in there was broken. I have attached a picture. Can anyone tell me where I can get a new one of these? Thanks for all your help. My search for peace and a perfect running car continues...
