Yep, they have one. 1986 and older has a two piece rear main seal. 1987 and up has a one piece rear main seal.
how do you change a rear main seal in a Chevy 350 motor
two
1986
The lip on the seal always goes towards the pressure are the fluid.
1986 and older are 2 piece.
Between 350 to 400.00 dollars depending on who does it.
Yes, That would be the easiest thing 2 do.
2
NO you can not. The crankshaft and rearmain cap is not designed for a 2 piece seal. Must use a 1 piece seal ONLY.
If it is a late month of 1987( Build date) then it has a 1 piece solid round rear main seal in it and you will need to remove the transmission and fly-wheel and then pop the seal out and drive the new 1 in place. If it was built before late 1987 then you will have to remove the oil pan and rear main cap to service the rear seal. It will have a 2 piece seal in it.
no ,the 1986 and up blocks have a one piece rear main seal and will not fit in the earlier blocks.gmjim
YES it does. Must remove oil pan, Oil pump and rear main bearing cap to service the rear main seal.
