Hi, I have the new modern seal and there is an inner ring that appears to be directional, does the beveled side inner seal fin point toward the radiator or toward the crank case?

Just a tidbit of food for thought.
When installing a modern sprung seal, the spring ALWAYS goes toward the liquid you want to keep in!You wana look waaay far up da road and plan yer route because the brakes are far more of a suggestion than a command!

Tom: what rope seals do you use, the white teflon ones? Ours are leaking on a new motor with good pulley. Maybe break- in needed? Are the modern seals neoprene, nitrile, etc? We removed from a motor an older neoprene that was not very effective.

Hi all, Just a follow up on the problems with the 2 pc. broken crank pulley I was dealing with in late October.
I finally got the new (screw together pulley) installed after checking all the main bearing clearances while I had the pan off and reinstalled the new "modern front seal" as per DaWizards instructioins and followed the "leakless oil pan" instructions to the T and I'm delighted to report no leaks at, so far, after about a 100 mile of test runs and a few hard pulls, on some very long steep hills in the area, over a few weeks period.
Weather has taken a turn for the worse so I am grounded for a while right now.
Thanx so much to all who replied with their valued input. I'll keep the forum updated if anything changes on the front seal results. Many thanks again!!
