Hi welcome to the forum the seals in the pistons are not avalible the piston seals are made from a fabric leather or something I used a off the shelf seal that fit in the groove I used them in the 2 outer grooves leaving the the center seal in
the shaft seals are also not a standard size I think they are 1 1/4 x 2 1/8 cheveron seals I took the closest size with the corect inner and turned the od to fit in the bore on my lathe it was a pain but it worked no leaks
how are your rods and caps mine were junk I got chrome 1 1/4 rod stock from a local shop and cut the ends off my rods and welded them on to the new rods that is after turning new theads on the piston ends
I also put bushings in my caps they had 1/8 of slop in them
I will find the seal numberd and post them thanx ken
