    HELP! Leaky input shaft is an understatement

    So I finished my manual swap today and when I gave it a test drive I noticed a steady drizzle of transmission fluid coming from the bell housing. I replaced both my input shaft seal and my rear main seal. I used this for my input shaft seal housing

    I spread an even thiiiiin layer on the housing and torqued it down. I made sure to get rid of all the green sealant that was already there, and I made sure the surface was like new in terms of cleanliness. Here's the seal housing I'm talking about:



    I'm going to pull the transmission next week but if anyone has any suggestions or past experiences, let me know :D
