I went with a crate engine from a local builder, Smeding Performance, and their milder Dart based 427 Windsor. My car was a Q-code 351 Cleveland. I could not be happier. A great street engine.

Sorry David. I effing hate stories like this. I lost my Mother, MIL and FIL in five years to cancer and have two dear friends, age 50 and 57, fighting it now with a dismal outlook.
She used to a bit, a 4 speed Q code with 3.50 gears. Since the swap to the 427 Windsor and Tremec 5 speed she has zero interest. She prefers her 2017 Boxster S it seems.
I am replacing the seals on my 73 Mach 1 and note that there was some kind or sealant/glue between the seal and lens. What should I use when I install the new seals?
