I've rebuilt two engines with the seal and am very pleased.  Minimal drips at
this point, seal is doing well after about 3000 miles on the first engine.
Both my kits came from Joe Alexander using original scrolls, but I suspect the
new setup is just as good an no need for dealing with cores.  Of course if you
do want to do the machine work yourself I suggest contacting Joe to see if
seals are sold separately.  Instructions for machining the original scroll
housing are available.
