I was just wondering if anybody has had any problems with their distributors leaking through the o-ring. I have tried to everything possible to stop it, but nothing works. I have a high volume oil pump, and I wonder if the higher oil pressure is causing it to leak through. Any ideas would be helpful.

Nah mine has a toyota seal on it (along with a few aftermarket ones) and it doesn't leak into the dizzy, it pours out between the head and the housing for the dizzy and NOTHING has sealed it yet.
