Apex seals for Interpol 2

[Bambusbjoern588]

Hey guys,

I'm n need forsome new Apex seals for a Interpol 2 I'm rebuilding a at the moment.
I got the choice betweenthe standard ones from startright or ceramic ones from axiro.
But i never got the full confimation that the axiro ones fit the norton motor.
Has anyoone of you got experience with those?
Any info appreciated!

Hey Tony,
Theres only one post where someone talks about that they should fit, but no confirmation sadly.

Why take the risk,use the ones from Startright,J.B.

Hi Lucas, I would be wary of using them as I suspect the Axiro engine uses a harder internal coating which will allow them to use ceramic seals (Brian Crighton is using DLC (diamond like coating) in his engines which allows him to use less oil improving emissions). Axiro are quoting 1% oil petrol mix.
I have emailed Axiro with reference to rotor bearings and they seemed quite willing to discuss technical matters so may be interesting to get more info.
I would agree with John were the risk would not be worth it considering the standard set up usually gives good service.
My two penneth for what its worth
