I've done the rear main on my rebuilt (under 6k miles) B23ft twice now. The first time didn't seal because of a botched speedi-sleeve on my part. The second one sealed perfectly for a couple thousand miles. I had the trans off last week to swap in a T5. It was bone dry.
Now, after a couple hundred miles driving with the T5 it's slinging a substantial amount of oil off the back of the flywheel, to the point it's even coming out of the CPS hole at the TOP of the bell housing. Can anyone think of a reason for this besides a terrible coincidence? Nothing about the T5 install could have damaged the seal. Maybe the vibration/resonance from the different transmission?
