It looks a little odd in certain pictures but I was thinking I'd give it a try. (I've never used anything but the OE replacement black Fel Pro personally) TIA Rich Rich H. Esse Quam Videri

If they aren't making it themselves then it is most likely a repackaged seal. The pictures on-line rarely are correct. Fast Fish has a one piece seal for big block Mopar engines. I don't know the story on it. I assume he gets them from the same place that makes one piece seals for various Ford engines.
