this horse has been beat to death , but------

I built one years ago. 3-4 rear main seals later, found out it was a marine engine reverse rotation. Pulling oil out of engine.

Well I haven`t got the pan back on yet , but the new seal cap came in yesterday , and is the neatest I`ve ever seen. CNC`d and fit like a glove, couldn`t have been any more perfect, centered the maim seal , fit the side of the block perfect and tite both sides.
I was kinda worried about the side rails tho , as tite as it fit the block . I got the bright idea of glueing the soft rubber side rails to the cap , using DAP fusion weld, a fast setting , glue anything ''but pure silicone'' , glue.
Held it on a flat surface for about 15-20 seconds in position while setting up, oiled the sides of the rails when installing, had to apply a little push in pressure on one side to get started, went in w/ a good amount of pressure to install, when it hit the circular part around the crank , I had offset about 3/8" , I could tell it pushed them together to mate, really happy w/ it ---------reworked the funny car windage tray to fit the reworked funny car pan , will install it today. Mwuay old *** wore out -----------more to come.
