Default Why am I bleeding tranny fluid?

The Vette has been sitting in the garage for two weeks while I arrange financing of my new engine. The blown head gasket eventually led to some bottom end damage and that's why it's been garaged. I drained the coolant and the oil the day after it happened. Now today, I see tranmission fluid under the car. What's up with that? Related to the damaged engine or just coincidence? By the way, I visited Corvette Mike's in Anaheim and I'm definitely having the engine installed there.

Well this is interesting...I found a hole in the clutch housing. Now how did that happen?

Sorry to hear about your bad luck. :nonod: You said you were arranging financing for your new engine, where did you go. Was it a bank or does Corvette Mike offer it? It would be really nice if they did, and it would only make since, since they would be making more money and doing more business. Just wondering? :seeya
