"The all rubber one goes fully inside the end of the tailshaft. The rubber/metal one is more of a press-in with the metal lip resting on the outside end of the tailshaft."

Not sure what the 'outside end' is as there might be different 'steps' as you move in.

Canrc, do you have the part number you obtained for the upgraded/Viper-spec seal and ordered from Rob at Tremec?

Thanks!
Chris

I have the part number written down at work but this is what the new one will look like:

If you could post the part number when you get back to work tomorrow, it would be much appreciated.

Strange, that's a lot different than the other pics I've seen on the net. I thought it would look like the one on the right in the following pic(the standard one is on the left):



And here's a pic of the rear seal on a Viper-spec T56. You can see the metal lip(red):



They look much different than the one you provided a pic of. Are you sure that's the new one?
