If you have the aftermarket rear crankshaft seal on your TR3-4, how does it perform? Does it Not leak at all? Leaks just a little bit? Leaks a lot? -- uncle jack - red, white, and New Blue

It was my understanding that the grooves in the rear of the crank were meant to be a thrower to retain the oil. I went through a lot of stuff to learn how to fit the rear seals and when I did it stop

I've used the conversion on 2 engines. The first leaked a little more than I liked. Jeff Wilt has that car now and it definitely marks it's spot. For the TR4, Ken G recommended a different cut on th

Scrappy is virtually dry at both ends (amazing), but it wasn't always so. A TR4 block still had the core plug where the block road draft tube goes. Unless the crankcase is properly vented even the be
