[Fot] Rear main rope seal alternatives?

[Joe Alexander]

Have you got Kas’ last book? It has a chapter on “avoiding oil leaks in wet sleeve engines”. It discussed the real seals and rope seals

Commercial Message: We have that book at a very low price to FOT. And we just received a batch of Viton Seals. Will discount.

We also have new runs of front and rear engine plates in aluminum.

Thanks,

Joe Alexander
