T-Series First 60 Mile Drive

[SIZE=-1]Took the wife and her two puppies for a ride yesterday and wound up driving a little over 60 miles. The car preformed flawlessly! I have to adjust the brakes a tad as I guess the new shoes settled in a bit and the pedal gained another 1/4 inch of play, from a half inch to 3/4s of an inch. Other than that, it's a treat to drive. The oil fill cap seeped a slight amount of oil, never giving it a thought before, I looked at the gasket in the cap and found out someone made a gasket out of a piece of thin paper. I made a new gasket out of 1/8th cork and it now fits very tight. That little problem is now solved. Other than that, no oil leaks anywhere! I am considering upgrading the final drive from the 4.8 to a 4.1. Boy do we love this car. All the work for the past 5 years was well worth it! Going to the Fayetteville AR show on Sept 12th. PJ
