Re: [Amc-list] Converter seal?

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I should know tomorrow night for sure.
I have the 6988H National BCA on order at Advance auto.
For once they beat out rockauto who wanted $7.95 to ship an $11 seal.
$13.70 total at Advance.
I'll post one nice clean easy to search for post if it is correct.
