Need full engine Re-Seal Kit
I'm building a 944S2 from a complete short block. I just priced all the seals, belts, and gaskets from Pelican for around $600. Anyone know of where I could find a single, complete set cheaper.
I'm also looking at what few items I can eliminate since the crank and balance seals are still installed in the "new" engine and do not appear to be leaking.

... however it is cheaper just to buy the entire bottom end and top end sets. If you have a couple spare seals save them. The last thing you want to do is be missing a seal and have to hold up the build for days.
I have rebult 3 or 4 engines each time with full seal kits. I do have small stack of "spares" and turn to them if I have a single seal leaking later on.

http://ebsracing.com/ sent me everything I needed with a single "I'm rebuilding my '86 951 long block, I need everything" request over the phone. Zero headache and the piece prices were equal or less to the other online retailers.
I highly recommend calling them on the phone. An order with that many parts is just too much of a hassle to do on a website.
