I've been having a problem with my exhaust valve guide seals sealing too good. I've heard from a few different shops that I should run an umbrella seal on the exhaust side. Does anyone know if there is an umbrella seal out there to fit in a dual spring with dampner? I believe its like 0.730" or so inside diameter. ------------------ 1982 Ford F100 2wd Shortbox.

Several companies offer them. Take a spring to a larger machine shop or engine rebuilder and they can match one up.------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver NHRA and IHRA SS/LA & SS/MA National Record Holder '00,'01,'02,'03,'04 &'05 First SS/MA in the TENS!
