Well, I'm a little happier now..injecting the sealant into the pan/block seam seems to be holding. No leaks after 3 miles and before it took about half a mile to leak about what I figure to be about a cup.
There might be some engine noise but I have yet to really try to hear it because I don't want to hear it. If it takes a dump, I'll call the engine reman. place and make them do it.....it might have a total running time of 30 minutes.
Time will tell. I might run it into town tomorrow night for the guy.
$5474 total parts and labor into an $1100 truck.
