Chevy rear seal

Post by David and Joyce Edgar » Sat Aug 18, 2001 9:52 am

Steve, Go to the mg-tabc web site, and then the Technology link. First item there is: Andrew Bradley s XPAG oil seal This pretty much explains it but I suggest buying a new top aluminum slinger shield as old ones have a habit of being warped. I know of several people who have had trouble stopping the rear leak with the Chevy seal. In one case it was from the aluminum cover warping and not letting the seal mate properly. In other cases it was from inadiquate sealing of other mating parts. Be careful. When done correctly it works GREAT. By the way, I had trouble finding a place to do the welding on the crank. Most shops were hesitant to do it. Don's Speed Center in San Diego would do it but I would have had to wait 3 months due to their work back log. I took my crank and pieces to Mike Goodman (Van Nuys, CA) who has done this conversion many times and had the parts back in a week. He is on this list but you can contact him at: oldmgdoc@aol.com or at his shop 818-996-7388 David Edgar, TC 5108 El Cajon, California

FYI, it was Don at Don's Speed Center, who helped me come up with the system, so he certainly knows how to do it! Andrew Bradley
