Is this the type of seal you used?

Hi Jordan
I have been running the engine regularly, mainly in order to keep it all from gunking up, the modern fuel is crap and it clogs evreything up if you leave it .
The water pump mod has been great , no leaks in over 2 years. Yes those mechanical seals are easy to buy. I used the 5/8" one from memory.
