Hi everybody , this is going to be a specialist treat I think . Have ordered 2 oil seals en the supplier send me to different models . Like you hopefully can see on the pictures the design is different . I am always curious tho now why . Those things are made by engineers so the do thing on purpose en for a well now reason I suppose . So if when take this in consideration witch one would be the best fit for my engine . It's not a P6 engine but already a SD 1 Vitesse blok , it's going to run on Valvoline VR1 20w50 .I would go for the black one but above all I find this en interesting questions from witch we all can learn something maybe . questions in the question the SD 1 Vitesse blok needs one 1L of oil more than the P6 engine , but for reasons of clearance I have fitted the oil pan of the P6 engine . I assume the oil pan of the SD 1 is bigger en can hold more oil . Do I need to go to the SD 1 spec's or fil up to the standard spec's of the P6 engine . There is a difference of 1L between the two . I am afraid that I could overfill en than changing the rear seal won't do much good neder . So would be nice if you could give me your touch about this topic . En for Harvey I still haven't won the lottery but you are still the first one I am going to call . Many thanks for your help en support on the telephone . Kind regards Marc .
