Having trouble getting the rear main seal not to leak. Have tried two seals and both leak after 10 minutes. I saw the other post on the Fel pro seals and am going to try that. I take it will work with a mancini cnc retainer? Has anyone got any experience with the mancini rope seals on the sides?

Get rid of that billet seal retainer, that’s likely your problem. That is one part that didn’t need to be reinvented. I also quit using lip seals back there and just buy rope seals.

I don’t have any extras at the moment but they shouldn't be hard to find. I bought my last rope seal from Mancini’s, it’s MRE 5297.
