I went to Beaver Springs today to get some practice in for the Y block shootout next month. I made one pass 17.58 @ 80 mph. They came to my pit and said I was putting down oil the whole way up the track. I don’t have time to fix the rear main seal, I’m hoping I can come up with some kind of diaper for the track. I can’t believe it was as bad as they said. I lost less than 1/2 a quart on the 95 mile drive home.
Ken, I met your boys. You must be feeding them pretty good, one of them is pretty big. Dennis

They didn’t stop to clean the track after me, I can’t believe it was as bad as they said. There was an accident earlier in the day, so I guess they were being cautious.
It’s the rear main seal. Pretty greasy underneath. In 2013 when I put the G heads on and the 312 crank, I had a 272/292 gasket set. (I needed that for the G heads) I had to reuse the 239 side seals.
