    low Oil Pressure on my 302c

    keep in mind if your getting a clevo built ask the builder to sleeve the lifter holes in the block ,the sleeves that they fit have a 1 mil hole v,s the 3 mil hole in the block thus slowing the oil to the heads,and keeping oil around the crank

    Rear quarter replacement advice

    looks like they didnt remove the 1/4 correctly,they fitted a 2nd hand panel which look like it came with rust ,best way to attack the pin holes is with a die grinder as this will piss all the scale and rust off ,so you can 1 spot weld up the new holes created by the die grinder or spot weld in small plates ,with the rear section id do what you have drawn up in the picci, with the rust between the seem ,best bet for this is to pour rust converter into the seam,let it dry for a day or two ,then etch prime it ,then paint it with ,kill rust black add a little 2 pak hardner to the kill rust itl go as hard as ,lol put the kill rust on with a brush underneath and inside your repairs the keep the water off the back of your repairs
