Hello folks,

I am thinking about using one of the more chemically resistant Viton formulation at least for O-rings in the case and under the cylinders and maybe oil pump along with front and rear crank seals if I can get them.

Has anyone found a good source for smallish quantities of (mostly metric) Marco V1033, V1020 / Parker V7594B, V1260-75 or Marco L1000 L1010?

This chart got my attention, especially the V1000s struggles with API SG and SH motor oil...

Alternatively do we think any of the MS29513 O-Rings could work so long as I can get the squish, stretch and gland fill percentage correct?
