What type of seals should i get for my FD? I have a T-78 in it and i'm wanting to boost 20+ PSI.

Alot of people have success with the stock seals. Reactive racing made 780 RWHP on stock seals, and i would venture to guess they are running a few ticks more boost then you are https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

stock 2 piece 2mm are pretty strong. Only problem is when they blow....they f*ck $hit up real bad.



The atkins seals on the other hand(2mm 2piece) are easy on the motor when they blow up. They normally dont mess anything up. I've blown 2 motors with the atkins seals in...not a ding or scratch on me. However, they dont' take well to high exhaust temps.



I'm currently using the rotary aviation apex seals(I'm the guinea pig I guess)...no problems so far. I've ran some pretty crazy a/f's with them(accidentally) and they're holding up fine for now.

what about hurley seals? Are they any good?

For awhile, the hurley seals seemed to do well, but recently there have been a few people complaining about them.
