Don't know. Never used the FelPro teflon seal. Apparently, Ford Racing (now Ford Performance) is the high-performance division of Ford Motor Company. So I have to assume the quality is fairly decent. I tend to go with OEM stuff if I can. I do know that patience and attention to detail during installation makes a big difference. If the OP possesses those qualities and installs the crank repair sleeve, locks it in with Loctite 518 flange sealer, installs the Ford Racing RMS, uses thread sealer on the flywheel bolts and torques them to spec, the chances are pretty good he'll have a leak free installation. Just my $.02.Evintho--So basically you're saying the rubber Ford Racing seal is better quality and would seal better than the teflon Fel Pro seal?
There's a small price to pay for all this help.So I just ordered the Ford Racing rear main seal, crankshaft sleeve, & the loctite 518 (already have the thread sealer) so we'll see what happens. I'll probably go to home depot and get a 4" pvc cap like someone in this thread suggested and give that a shot. I appreciate everyone's advice. I hope this solves the problem.
Well since i contributed nothing.....lol..... Deal! I'm sure we would all like to hear your success story.You have a deal. But it might take a few weeks to get it done because I only get to work on stuff on Sundays.
Try SCE 23604Monkeybutt2000--do you have a part # or website link for that double lip rear main seal?
