Anyone have any suggestions about what alternative there is to the NAPA # BK 61-1000 seal that is NLA? Tkx. Jim

Tkx Silverstude. The only valve seal I could find is this set: Ranco Water Valve Repair Seal Set for LARGE 3/4" or SMALL 5/8" OD leg It has 3 different seals. Around 16.50 shipped. I saved that sheet because I could not anything like it on line. Though I did find the 4 combo articles talking about the different seals. Thats How I located the set. Hopefully one of the 3 will work. My project R4115 R2 4 speed I just picked up last week. Only the heater core was left in the car. All parts are there I think. I will pull it and test it.  Question, are the 2 pre formed black heater hoses the same? 1 came with the car so Im  not sure which one I need/ Tkx Jim F

@rufcar - as luck would have it, I ordered one (one, singular) 660-1000 from NAPA, and whoever picked/shipped the part ended up sending me a box of 10. These are all the expected Ranco HTR-100 kits in each bag with the instruction sheet and the rubber seal.  Send me a message with your address and I'll drop one in the mail.

figures as my local NAPA guy (owner of store) said NLA. Just shows you if you get the right person doing the correct numbers.

You got it, Jim. I'm stopping by the post office this evening so I'll message you with the tracking number once it gets issued.

@Parklife I need this rubber also. Would you send one (1) to The Netherlands for me please?

[Parklife]

Hi @Kodjo, unfortunately I already sent out the extras I had.
