Cowl induction seal

[m22mike]

This is a continuation on the discussion and correct installation of the now "Infamous" upside down and inside out cowl seal started over at "marys" thread Super car photographs. I did not want to further hijack a great thread.
Some of the following will be redundant from what "KevinW" has already mentioned here.

Kevin, glad to see this subject bugs you too... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/sick.gif[/img]

1st off all the GM seals I have had must be turned and forced to the correct position. And #2 if they are not glued down it will be difficult to get them to lay out well.
Black trim cement works well, but do not used it over crappy rattle can paint.



Again, the squared edge goes to the out side facing down, not up... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]



Now as to training the seal, I pull the top edge of the seal and fold it over the outside edge of the ring. Clamps or extra hands might help. I have also used the black plastic wire harness wrap to hold it in place. Then leave it till you install it on the car.
The last one I did I sandwiched it between two pieces of plywood and screwed it together to add some pressure.
And It helps to keep it in the sun as mentioned.[img]
