If it ain't one thing, it's another. Got my plug wire issue solved and went for a cruise only to have the rear main eat itself again - this time way worse than before. I thought I had this thing licked with no leaks after a few hundred miles and a bunch of dyno pulls. It had it idling in the garage most of the afternoon as I dinked with timing and such and it was dry as a bone.

It blew cruising at a low RPM and was fairly sudden when it happened. Limped it home in a giant cloud of smoke leaving a trail of expensive Driven oil behind me. Fortunately I was only a mile or so from home.

Not sure what I could be doing wrong. I can definitely see pieces of seal collected around the rear of the crank and I think I'm even seeing chunks of seal in the oil that's dripping down from the pan. I might leave this next pass to a professional.

Just thinking…You could very well have a bent crank. And its taking out rear main seal.

Only other thing I can think of looking at that oil pan, is that that pan takes the 3 tab rubber seal, which you don’t have in there and it could very well just be leaking there. Did you just use the cork gasket that fits on the main cap?
