A Corvair seal will probably work; it is available from Clark's Corvair Parts, their part number C497: http://www.corvair.com/user-cgi/cata...=MAIN&page=115
I had to add bushings in my transmission case in the the shift shaft bores. |

thanks for your idea, I've used Clarks before for some rear swing arm bushings and they were a great help. I,m pretty sure they'll work too.

I added the bushings as part of my transmission rebuild during restoration of my 65 Corsa, but it keeps the shaft from moving radially and pushing against the seal inner diameter. I still get a "weep" of fluid out at the shifter, but not a "leak".
