Your local Mitsubishi dealership.
There aren't any aftermarket makers that I know of, and even if there were I don't know why you would want to buy them. Think before you post please. -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"

How could cam seals get any better? It's just a regular cam seal gasket. Made to keep oil in and everything else out. I don't see how they could get better.

There is a brand of cam seals that are to replace OEM quality and withstand more pressure. If I come across them Ill let you know the name. I can only find them for Hondas/Acuras right now though. Didnt know that a simple question would turn into such a headache.

They would be better if NoS made them.

Why would you want to withstand more pressure? For better resistance to oil leaks from blow by? Best fix for that is the oil catch can that you hook up to the valve cover to catch any oil that comes out the emissions ports (PCV and intake line).
Here: http://www.slowboyracing.com/more.php?id=2016& If you think you need better cam seals because of the pressure they're seeing, you are mistaken. Air pressure is like any other type of pressure. It's going to find the easiest spot to get out and it's going to go there. A cam seal is by far harder for air to leak out (no matter how bad it may be) than the breather or PCV valve on your valve cover. Sorry scooter. -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"
