Don't know about the TR3, but I had a leaky rear seal on my Herald,
with a 1296cc spitfire motor. It had the old scroll type seal that
doesn't seem to be avaiable (for good reason I think). I ordered one
from Motorhead (a rubber and spring type) had the housing bored out to
fit, and pressed it in with a little sealer. What do you know, it
doesn't leak!!!! Don't know about a kit, but if it consists of changing
to a modern type of seal go for it!
