Re: rear seal leak
I had my mechanic tear it down after I got it. It has new pistons, rings,
cam etc, just like the receipts that came with it said, but valves were
mismatched. I had to have the valves, guides and springs replaced, but
internally it was good. I'll admit I spent too much on this small v8, I
should have went with a 401 or 350 sb for the $. It dyno'd at 210 hp.

It has no unusual noice at all, and plenty of power. It idles at ~7-800 and
psi is above 10 at hot idle. I posted 5-10 psi, but after rechecking the
gauge it's above 10 psi at it's lowest.

Re: rear seal leak
That's still way too low, something wrong! A V8 by any manufacture
should never be less than forty pounds as we see in these mechanic's
guide lines: http://www.----------.com/amchpchart.jpg
