I have for sale a single lip seal conversion kit for a 100-4 that requires 
machining of the crankshaft. Please let me know if you are interested. 

Regards, 

Charlie

I've had that mod or a long time and no detectable oil leaks.

Bob 
Are you sure you do not have excessive crankcase pressure? There are a few 
places that could leak if that is the case and the rear crank area is one.

When we rebuilt my BJ8 Engine I bought the Oil Seal from Moss and my machinist 
friend installed it. I am confident he did a good job drilling and tapping 
holes etc. I had hoped that I would not have rear crankshaft oil leaks. In the 
past year I have driven the car a little over 1,000 miles 25 miles at I time 
and recently noticed those infamous oil spots on the driveway. Today I visited 
my British Car friends at Tech Central in Bonita Springs a 100-mile round trip 
on I-75 nonstop at 65-75 mph. Fortunately, I carried 2.5 quarts of oil because 
I had to use it to fill the crankcase when I got there and had to add 2.5 
quarts when I got home. In addition, I notice the clutch slipping in 4 th gear 
in overdrive if I accelerated. No doubt caused by oil on surface of the 
friction plate. 
When I got home the weep hole in the transmission bell housing was producing 
one oil drop every three seconds and when running the engine at fast idle one 
drop of oil every second. 
Has anyone had a failure using this seal conversion kit?
