LT4 HotCam

Major setback........
Well I installed the new clutch/pp / t-o bearing and tranny to the engine before putting it in the car to avoid working from the underside. I bled the clutch last night and everything was A-OK until this morning when I noticed hyd. fluid leaking from the bellhousing. I topped off the reservoir,bled it again and it felt good for 5-6 cycles. Then it went to the floor and a large stream started again from the bellhousing.
"...yeah that Ram Conversion kit looks cool. I think I'll try that..."

Looks like I will be pulling the tranny..........
