Anyone have engine seal recommendations? Need to get a kit of them to do my sprocket seal, shifter and kicker seal.

I've been using the cheap sets off eBay. I had a **** case last year and it pumped a lot of coolant into my trans and they held all that coolant and atf without leaking. I'm kinda skeptical of OEM rubber for old machines. You never know how long they've been sitting on a shelf.

That's what I figured was a good route. Thanks for the input Gillio.

I've used many many moose seal sets always good results. And recently the  K&S with very good results, the k&S stator seal is a Vinton like the OEM.
