Hey guys -

Well, I picked up my engine and tranny from the yard a few weeks ago, and I ordered the upper and lower seal kits from FCP Groton, and have gotton down and dirty cleaning the engine and taking it apart. My quetion is this -

Where the heck do all these seals go? The kit comes with way more than I can find in the engine, both the upper and lower kits. Has anybody used this kit to recondition thier engine before? Some of the seal places are obvious, but I'd like to replace as many as possible before I pop the sucker in my car. I did buy one of the green manuals, it was the assembly/disassembly one and didn't have much info in it about seals. Is there a list somewhere of seals? FCP just kind of throws them at you with no list or help of any sort. Any help in this venture would be appreciated, I need to get my engine in sometime soon.

Also, my brother was severely rear-ended in his 88 740 Saturday morning, you can check out pics here. He and his girlfriend suffered absolutely no injuries, not even a little whiplash. He says only a Volvo will replace the one that got wrecked.
