Rear main seal leak will i pass tech inspection??


my rear main seal was leaking so i decided to change it. In the process i discoverd that my crank is scored. I installed the Felpro Teflon $40 Seal. It still leaks i think it leaks more. Anyone know if i went to the track would i pass tech inspection?

At my track you would pass. Unless its pouring oil out... Mine just leaks a bit, but still never have to wipe it up after sitting at the staging lights.

Mine leaks a quarter size every couple of weeks or so. They don't even look at our track. If it leaks a lot, make it right before you go next.

Anyone ever hear of an offset rear main seal that changes where the seal rides on the crank?
