Remind me--whats involved in 305 rear main seal replacement?
Ever since my "gasoline in the oil pan disaster" of last spring, the rear main seal in my roadster pickups 305 has been leaking a bit. Just enough to annoy me, not enough to get serious and replace it. However, with the impending 2500 mile round trip to the East coast nationals on the horizon, I'm thinking it might be wise to replace it now. Its been a while since I replaced a small block rear seal As I remember, its fairly simple---remove the pan bolts, remove the pan,---but then I kind of vague out. I can't remember just what the story is on the rear seal. I don't think I have to drop the crank, but I truly can't remember. Can somebody please give me a refresher on this. Its a 305 with turbo 350 automatic, out of an '85 Pontiac.---Brian
