Hey guys, im working on my first motor build and i was wondering if theres anything special i need to do to get the rear main seal in its housing and then on to the end of the crank, any help would be greatly appreciated thanks a bunch

 

You just want to make sure... it goes in.. very .. straight.
You wanna have something flat against it. So that you are not tapping the seal... but tapping whatever you have up against the seal.

 

Use a seal driver, if not, at the very least 2 blocks of wood and a c-clamp.

 

To get it out just tear it out or bang it (just dont ding or bend the housing)
