Hi All,

The Alfa Romeo 164 engine swap saga continues...After explaining patiently to my local mechanic why I would very much like to replace the current transmission in the car with the one I bought along with the replacement engine (which had about 70,000 less miles worth of wear on it) I was asked to order parts required for a rebuild after changing out the input shaft bearing. I've ordered everything but a single part that I suspect goes by a different name in parts catalogues.

"Reverse Shaft O-Ring Seal" is what I was informed needs to be replaced. Suggestions?

Can I just say that when all is said and done this car shall be driven everywhere it is humanly possible to drive an Alfa Romeo.

Alfa part number 14457280 is the oring but mechanic should be able to find an oring to replace it with if it is needed.

What parts did you already order - 60810762 now 46403722 ROLLER BEARIN input shaft bearing and 46411951 input shaft TO bearing sleeve and what else?
