I plan to label each pack accordingly​ to match VR pack numbers with where each seal actually goes and what every seal is. Please post if you know. I'll be editing this post with all the final results for easier searching for people looking at all these seals for the first time. The last thing anyone wants is to mix and match seals on their fresh build and get a leak. This is a kit ordered from Lindsey Racing for an 1987 944 turbo. Updates to come!

Thanks for this!

 

I've been racking my brain trying to figure out what and where all of these gasket where for. This is a BIG help!

 

The Oil Tube Pickup seal is a plie of junk, Might as well use silly putty.. Not sure why VR puts them in there but anyone who has done bottom ends tosses it and get an OEM Black one...

That would be a huge +

 

Can anyone confirm the black o-ring in kit VR: 17-01196-01 ? Not sure I ever had to use it on my turbo block or not. But I'd like to update the first post if anyone knows

 

I believe that is the oil pressure relief valve spring
