Hi Bob,
Good to hear. But, my seals are not RWS they are
also the Hurley seal. So it would be interesting in particular to compare
the reading you get with Rusty's seal (Hurley) and my seal. I still think
my seal may not have the same degree of hardness - based on what appeared to be
ridges of metal pushed up under the rubbing surface. I am use to
"hardened" things breaking fairly easily but not rubbing a ridge.
To give Van Inc the benefit of the doubt, they have
published several articles on the rotary written by myself and Tracy (and
perhaps others), so given his preference for "Lycomings" (and why not- he sells
more than anyone else), I think he's been more than fair in the past. No
longer get the Rvator so didn't get to read the article.

Ed, Rusty,
The mailbox was full of seals today. Rusty’s Hurley seal and Ed’s RWS
seal. It will be Thursday before
I go back in to work so I should have something to put on the list Thursday
night. Ed you are right, the 2
piece seal should do better under the tester than the 3 piece one.
I also got my Rvator today there was an article in there about Gerry
Gustafson and Jim Clark and their Powersport powered RV’s. Being fairly new at following the
Rvator I am not sure if this article on alternative power plants is good bad
or indifferent

Hey Tracy,
Did you get the broken seals I sent yet?
Probably no time to look at them with the trip and all - so go ahead keep us
in suspense (at least me) for another two - three weeks {:>)
