Its free and seals that u cant buy on the internet . If you work on ur motor between races and break the seal they check everything again at the next race and pop new ones on. We dont have to pull the motor ship it and pay $$$$$. Never said seals were not good... Merc seals are a joke and you know that Randy... guys have gotten busted for yrs with them going back to F1, F2, and the original SV class. I dont know a serious engine builder that doesn't have them in their tool box. Dont want to bash so wont go there but you know what it cost to send a motor to Merc for seals plus shipping. We r using seal as another tool ( one of many) not the bilble and again at SBI expenses FREE to the racers.
No different then the boxes, there is 5-6 different builder that can program that box now so after u seal ur motor how do u check RPM's and stops anyone from sending there boxes out ( serious question ) ??? There were teams running OSS with hot boxes so its nothing new and at the time I heard their techs were the best of the best.

Sorry I didnt answer the last part of your statement. Yes the seals that SBI is using are one off and being manufactured for them and not a random seal ( but it sounded good in ur post). They are working with a manufacturer that designed and made them for SBI at great experience to SBI. Hope that answers your question.
Again Randy its not a pissing match I know you want to go there but not about that . If u r happy with ur program great, we r taking.it to another level , if it work great if it does so be it. But none of what we do is going to effect you nor what OPA does effect SBI teams.
