Re: rear main oil seal replacement problem

Casey, the reason you found no rear seal is because there isn't one! Your engine uses a slinger as an intergral part of the crankshaft in lieu of a mechanical seal, very common construction for that time. By installing a lower seal you blocked off the return passage by which the slinger returns excess oil to the crankcase.
