I just found out that I have the wrong rear seal retainer. I have an ECG-6335-A, and think I need an ECZ-6335. There is another 312 engine at my machine shop and we compared them. The ECZ has a larger ID and wider channel for the seal. The part number on the ECZ seal is not clear. Are the billet retainers better than the factory aluminum retainers? I also only have 1 12 point bolt, I assume the bolts for the retainers are all the same.
Thanks,
