This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    That would be awesome if Todd could make this happen and then maybe get an exclusive on selling them. I'm still in for 3 of 'em.

    Hey guys, I am just waiting for Todd to give me the green light. He said he needed to talk to his contact at steele rubber. Or did I miss something?

    Not at all. That's very encouraging!!

    Can you post a picture of the seal when you get a chance?

    Sorry guys. I haven't had the time to pursue this.

    The Muscle Car hobby is going crazy right now and I simply don't have the time (working 60+ hours a week as it is)
    Once things calm down a bit I'll see if this is something one of the vendors I work with would have an interest in doing a run.

    I stumbled across this thread. I guess the seals are long gone on my 350 4-speed car. I had no idea there was anything supposed to be there.

    There is a material called TPU. You've probably seen phone cases made out of it. You can 3D print it reasonably easily and it is rated to be good when exposed to gas and oil.

    If I had dimensions, I could see if we can get one designed and 3D printed.

    As for the 2-wire plug wire holders, ABS would be too rigid and I don't know if TPU would be rigid enough. Printing them in ABS with an actual hinge would probably be required.

    I used these on my car without any issues. They aren't 100% correct but they work.
