As expected, the coolant leak appears to be at the hose connection to the water pump inlet, so I ordered a T-bolt clamp to replace the worm drive clamp, which should apply stronger clamping force.
While I was under there, I spotted a refrigerant leakage source in the AC system. It’s a swaged collar ...

Re: Mike's GT40 gets redone
Haven’t taken it out yet, but noticed a small puddle of antifreeze under the front of the motor as I was finishing up a few small things yesterday… :roll:
Guessing it was from running it last week and heat soaking at high idle… :think:
If I can’t spot the leak from above, I may have to reconnect ...

Re: Mike's GT40 gets redone
Thx Ken…no, nothing formal, I’ll just run it at different speeds/RPMs, monitor gauges, listen for any unusual noises, make mental notes of anything I’ll need to look into. Any suggestions for a more formal rundown?

Re: Mike's GT40 gets redone
I’ve spent quite a bit of time sorting out the front suspension, and I think I have it at a pretty good point. Lots of up and down, tires on and off, make changes, recheck alignment, etc…
I won’t bore you with nitty gritty details, end result is as follows:
Camber:
LF 3/4 degree negative
RF 5/8 ...

Re: Mike's GT40 gets redone
Still chipping away at the old rock pile… :whistle:
Received the new Moog LbJ today and got to work removing the old one…well, old in the sense that it’s been on the car a lot of years, but certainly not worn out other than the two piece grease boot. :roll:
I had to modify the bj remover some ...
