Mine came out once, with the nut on the tip.

I got it set, when I got the D side headers locked in, but do I need to check for some sealing???

The oil drip is coming from the drain plug. I cleaned it off with brake cleaner and tightened up but it started to seep so I ordered a new plug and will change it when I do the oil change.

Was on my way home last night and seen a 91 or 92 ZR-1 about 5 miles from my house. It was parked at a metal fabrication business and it was late so I didn't stop. Maybe on Friday I will stop in and inquire about who owns it.

The drain plug has a washer type seal,thats might be whats causing the leak.

It seems to be the washer that you are talking about is the leak. The new plug and washer arrived today and will get installed tomorrow when the oil is changed.

Everything has been put back together and polished up and I plan on driving her home for the weekend tomorrow. I will mess with the radio next week to try and figure out why it's not working. Besides who needs a radio when you have that sweet exhaust note coming from the back!

I will post some pictures up tomorrow.

Put about 300 miles on my first weekend with the new car. Don't seem to have any issues other than trying to find a wiper blade that doesn't hit the hood.

In 2 days I have met Vern who has a 91 ZR-1 with 66K on it and he has a shop about 5 miles from my house and at a stoplight on Saturday I had a 91 Turquoise ZR-1 pull up to me. He didn't think mine was a ZR-1 because I have the polished A-Mod wheels and they don't have the offset at the lugs like the saw-blades do. He lives in Buffalo, MN which is about 25 miles west of me. It is such a small world out there and I am sure I will come across more the longer I drive it.
