Next up is the connector pipe that goes through your rear engine tin.
For sure you know the one that sits closest to your rear bumper and features two similar holes. n each side of the crank pulley.

This connector pipe simply attaches through these holes onto the heat exchanger.
It gives you the possibility to connect your fresh air hose (ie. 1095) from your cooling fan house to the heat exchanger effortlessly.

Last one for this week is the below flywheel seal.
This one is made of silicone and features a double lip for improved sealing.

The double lip runs over the flywheel on a “new” runway, where never ran a lip before, what gives extra changes for perfect  sealing.
BBT advice to polish the neck and runway for the seal on the flywheel before instalation.

We make this double lip flywheel seal over 25 years and is by far our most sold one.
BBT has several varieties of flywheel seals from stock to heavy duty & of course for the early engines 25/30 HP & type 4 motors.
