With everyone in the US staying home, I decided to do something with my spare engine.  I am going with my spare engine because I know it has a rear main lip seal.  The engine in my car now is not the original but I don't know what rear main seal it does have, and is leaking as we speak!  So while I am building it I still have my car to drive around.   I have it disassembled for inspection and investigating the build parts, machine work and that stimulus check (which might just cover the tax on the final cost)!  I called a few places for parts prices and it seems JAE parts in Santa Barbara has everything I need at a good price.    After talking with Joe I'm finding out the Jensen/Lotus world is pretty small.  Everyone he mentioned I know on Facebook (as much as you can know someone on FB that is)!  Well I will keep everyone posted!  Bye for now!
