when i rebuilt the motor on the bj8 in the 90s, i spent about 400 dollars for a
seal and the machine work. did not stop the oil drip out the bottom of the
trans. this was the old rope seal type so maybe not too good. after getting
tired of oil dripping on my garage i fabricated drip pan that collected the
oil, ran an extension from the rear drip line from the intake manifold into the
drip pan. now when the oil drips out, it collects until i make a runs somewhere
and it is sucked back into manifold one drop at a time. have had it on for
years and it works great(no leaks on my garage floor from the engine(trans is
another story). i have also put this mod on a bunch of healeys in our club.
anyone wanting specs or pictures contact me off list. hjim
