I was hoping it was just an internal pressure issue. =C2=A0I may not be so =
lucky. =C2=A0I guess that I can change that by pulling the engine and remov=
ing the flywheel. =C2=A0I would love to try the straight cut gearbox someho=
w if possible.
Any other ideas.
Thanks a bunch,

Is the Huffaker built from the standard A series?  If so, there is no rear
main seal.  Instead they have a "Scroll" seal on the outside of the rear
main bearing.  There is a spiral groove on the rear of the crank shaft
which is supposed to *draw* the oil back into the engine.  However, if you
have too much crank case pressure the scroll seal can't overcome it and it
will weep oil which then collects in the bottom of the bell housing and
pours out onto your driveway.

Before you pull the engine again, check your crank case pressure.  On my
standard 1275 A series I had this problem....  I ended up drilling the side
of the block and installing a pressure relief hose into a small K&N
filter.  There are a couple of *fixes* for this including a kit that Mo$$
offers to replace the rear scroll seal with a better seal but it ain't
cheap.  Another method is a fix whereby you drill a channel into the scroll
and the rear main bearing cap and tighten up the tolerance but if you screw
that up you are out a rear main cap which is not replaceable because it is
line bored.   Don't ask.

Good luck with it.

Cheers!!
Jim

Sounds like the rear main seal is in 'backwards'.

Once more....   There is NO rear mail seal in this engine!  It has a scroll
seal (unless it has been aftermarket upgraded with either the Mo$$ motors
kit or the Mini Mania kit.  Both of these kits are relatively new items).
Here's a 12 minute video which describes the Mini Mania kit installation
and removal of the old scroll seal.  It is impossible to install the scroll
seal backwards. You are thinking of some other engine.

I use the JB Weld fix (Paul A., now Gerard?). 5 years, no leaks. 13:1 cr. It=

 rear seal kit that actually uses a seal.  I haven't tried one, but it's sup=

The Paul A kit really wasn't a kit. Just some detailed instructions, a 1/8" d=
rill, some cellophane and JB Weld and the requirement for a steady hand and a=
 good eye.

Gerard has "fine tuned" the rear seal kit offered by other vendors by keepin=
g a gallery in his replacement eyebrow piece, unlike the "other guys". The e=
yebrow piece still needs to be accurately placed with even clearance all aro=
und.=20
Paul's JB Weld trick worked well in theory, but could only ever be as good a=
s the hands doing the very finicky work.
An even clearance of .0015 to .003 is the key whatever method you use, and w=
hether or not you then add a seal kit.

Don't forget that the rings have to seat before they quit leaking pressure
into the crankcase... BTDT! I forgot about that when I rebuilt the engine
for a supercharger and installed it without the break-in time to seat the
rings. Oops. I know the puddle that a Sprite makes.
