The pilot bearing should defintely be changed. One thing I'd suggest regarding the rear crankshaft seal--based on my own experience--if the car is going to be used often there's nothing wrong with the original felt seal. If it will be sitting for long periods I'd look to upgrade the seal housing to one from a B21/23/230 (or rarer '75 B20F or B30). I found the seal in my '69 144 dried, shrank and split after having been sitting for a long while. If you use one from a B21/23/230 be sure to take the two screws that hold the pan on (metric threads in the housing). -- Dave
