Title: rear main seal red motor Post by: red_devil on January 27, 2016, 04:10:01 PM Hi guys can anyone tell if the original style rear main seal for a 179 red is available and possibly where to buy them.
I had a brain surgeon build my motor now it all has to come out again to fix the oil leak.

As you will be taking the bottom end apart the gasket kits for these usually come with the oil seal! I haven't had any trouble getting seals or gaskets for them, got my last kit form Rare Spares.
