Yeah they're rare here too. I noticed one on the streets recently, but I can tell it's gonna land in the junkyard soon. Older woman driving it and it is beat up.

Finally finished this dreadful 3day rear main seal nightmare. Im living proof you can crack the block near the rms and it still not **** oil upon reinstallation. I did notice with fresh oil and new filter the bottom end knock is slightly louder. I did have to loosen ALL of the bearing caps in order to remove the upper seal. What a PITA
