I'm need to replace camshaft seals. The listings say 4 are required. I can see where 3 are on the two pulleys and position sensor. Where is the fourth?
Thanks

Yup, went through the same thing with our parts guy today as we ordered the cam seals separately instead of the Fel-Pro kit. Their logic is "it's a 4 cam motor, so 4 seals".

BUT, it worked out that they had the 4th, because one didn't seat right and I didn't feel comfortable with it, so I yanked it and picked up the 4th seal.

So, for the extra $3.50 you might want to have a spare on hand in case you have a mishap with one. I was using the Rotunda tools to do it, and I've probably replaced 100 or so SHO cam seals in the past without incident, but again if this is your first time it's cheap insurance to avoid having the car down while waiting for another one to arrive.
