Hi Charles,
Thanks for the info, good idea with the heat gun. I should be able to bring it up to atleast 250F. This really isn't a test of the bearing, as I am sure you have done this already and came up with the best bearing possible. This is just the idea of using the IMS as an oil tank would even be feasible. And if the seal can go the distance of atleast 250,000mi. before leaking.

Once I am confident that this idea is good and the seal will not self destruct and can go the distance, I am installing it in my 98 for the real world test. I will most likely use your bearing as my thinking right now is this combo will last indefinitely.
