rear seal

anyone no the best rear seal to use for a 71 455 the rope i know but what a bout the one peice no cut urathane one is it any better anyone no thanks
 
well

All I know is the rope has as many people liking it as not. If the engine takes a rope seal then it is two piece. A ring seal is for one piece of course and is a different install.
Just prepare to use about 10 new blades to get the rope seal cut nicely.
 
yes carmn thats the one i meant my misstake i put urathane have u had any trouble with them .thanks patrick for your imput to
 
Make sure you follow the instructions on the install and shouldn't have any problems. You need to score the seal base area a little to make sure it stays in place. Much easier to use and better results than others.

On the other hand, you know how to tell if someone has a buick race car? Look for oil in the pits. (and a 10 second time slip, or 9)
 
will do and aint that the truth are these ones fairly easy to put in while the motor is still in and will i need a puller for the top half if you know
