Should that be replaced with some sort of sealant?

It has straight threads and a seal ring. (It's not a tapered pipe thread.)

Drove this just-about* completed race car restoration up and down the street. Loading-up today to transport it to the Velocity Invitational event for the 50-year anniversary of the American Trans-Am series (this car raced in the series). -KB

 

 

*rear and side windows and a few decals get installed this morning...

The meats on this car are nuts, I was lookin at photos on Kooglerwerks Insta.

Will you have a chance to weigh it? I wonder if it's lighter today than it was during the 70s. I know there are weight limitations in this racing class, but would still be cool to know. Thanks.

Drained the coolant, removed the radiator (I want to do some paint touch up in that area and test the radiator)…coolant flowed well from the block plug…

Parked out front like a daily driver!

 

Actually a beautiful Fall day in WNC.  Drove back roads to a nearby small town and went grocery shopping the way she used to 30+ years ago.  Even threw in a short spirited blast down the interstate to see what the AFR reads at 70+.  Handled it all without a hitch...  Okay, did see some signs that the heater core may be leaking and a little smoke from the trans. leak hitting the exhaust but I'm counting it as a success!!!  So there are a couple of small projects for the winter

 Looking at my 72 Ceylon tii project in amazement feeling like the cobbler in the morning after the Elves came overnight and made the shoes… Been away for three weeks and with the help of my friends my engine is almost ready to start.
