Mike, I do believe you are spot on! All the pro and con on various forums and your thought here makes the most sence. Mine is a last of the 440's Another simple question that You find many different answers to. Which side of the seal goes toward the block? I am going to say that the open side of the seal where you can see the little circular spring. However, that does not leave much lip to drive the seal in.. Someone else removed the old seal and I didn't pay attentiom how it was installeed. Thanks again, I should finish putting this engine together and ready for paint Sunday......................MO On Sep 8, 7:10 am, Mike & Deb <mdlefe...@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Steve, > As I recall, when Chrysler adopted the redesigned front seal (double lip) they eliminated the slinger. > Mike LeFevre > > On Sep 7, 2012,MO<micher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Thanks guys.
