Not a crack in the hydraulic cylinder. Seep hole that was painted over. The pressure actually cracked the paint. Seals are hammered....

A little bitter sweet because Gary passed away before we complete the car. Ryan and the guys at DFW speed shop did a great job with the completion. Horsepower was provided by Red Oliver based in Dallas, transmission was built for us at Lyndsey's Ring and Pinion in Greenville South Carolina. Most of the suspension was sourced from Howe Racing Enterprises in Beaverton, Michigan. Blasting and powder coat all done by Patrick at Crosslink Powder Coat here in Dallas. All great great people to work with that provide quality work and products. I'm sure Corvette Gary would be pleased! Soon to be off to its new owner Vic in Pennsylvania ...
