how gutted am i

first start of the engine today with a rebuilt 3.5

oil relif valve seems to be stuck now

light went off first start then after i turned it over again the light stayed on

worst bit of all is the valley gaskets sprung a leak and its putting a puddle under the inlet manifold you can see it running out of the port next to cyl 2 at the front drivers side so that needs stripped

bonus is it runs

bit tight but it runs

strip it down again and THIS time it should be fine eh
