I have done the typical searches and really came up with nothing....I have seen it in a previous thread somewhere but have lost track of it. I am looking for a too that you can slide in the channel for the seal in the engine bay (in the body) . You take a hammer and pound the tool along the inside of the channel and it reforms the channel pack into shape. If anybody knows who makes it or where to get it, I would really appreciate the info. Thanks....

I got one from Danny. Works pretty good.

i copped my version from Danny. Took an old wood chisel and ground it to fit into the channel correct width and able to smooth out all the little crimps and dents in the channels. Its all depends on how you work the tool,small hammer helps.
