I need new rocker arm shaft seals for a 1983 3.0L. Anyone know where I can get some? Thanks,

Grady

Thanks for the replies. We don't know the past history of the engine or whether it has ever been apart. This engine came out of a wrecked 1983 911SC and now powers my 1974 914 very well. We have a very small leak at high rpms and are trying to eliminate all possibilities. We noticed the leak last weekend at Road Atlanta after spirited runs. We replaced the valve cover gaskets thinking that might be it. I could live with it, but it is in my WIFE's garage with a piece of cardboard under it. And my wife is not fond of the 914 to say the least. My mechanic and I wanted it to be a no dripper if that is possible. Before we installed the engine, I cleaned it very well. So even a drop is noticable.

I looked in Performance catalog and didn't find them. Will try Pelican today.

Thanks again,

Grady
