Had my header crossover pipe by the flex pipe shift and got push towards the coolant lines and made a pin hole leak in one of the lines I'm going to see if I can JB Weld it . Hopefully I can do something without having to swap out the whole thing.

I put a pin hole in a trans cooler line from grounding my wrench to the line while tightening the positive battery cable. Had about a qt of fluid all over my engine in about 10 sec. I used JB weld and it worked great!
This happend on my old z/28 Ran 12.7's@109 with 2.2 60ft times and a short shiftpoint. Engine wanted 5800 and the trans shifted at 5400. Still mis that car.
