    I'm in the process of restoring my 348 and after powdercoating the throttle bodies I realized replacement throttle shaft seals on the TB were necessary. After a crazy amount of searching a little shop which happened to be local to me just so happened to have perfect sized replacements. 8mm x 12mm x 3mm rubber seals.

    These seals fit both the throttle bodies and the intake manifold butterfly shaft seals.
