cool, thanks for all the input guys :tup: I really appreciate it.
The water pump weep hole’s going pretty good - I just don’t want to have this all apart 2x. MSD Opti it is. I need to trust this car if I ever have to get rid of the GSR. Having the plugs/wires done at the same time, def getting a stock clutch as well. I’ll go for the Taylor wires, then 
Ordered new clutch slave & master as well. Rear main seal’s going to be replaced as long as it’s apart.
Real pleased with the car so far, even handled the car wash wayyyy better than the c5! Less leaks rule.
PS flush, tint (legal), decent head unit, new rear wheel bearing, and driver’s side window motor, think I’ll be set.
