I have a set of the Scat gold push rod tubes that haven't leaked. It has two O rings. I have seen adds for "triple O ring" Scat tubes. Although I haven't heard of any one using them.

$90!!!!!!! You must be joking!!! I'd take a day and pull the motor and replace the old tubes with new stock ones.
Then again, I'd turn around and blow $400 on a set of Udo Beckers. |

Scat don't leak unless your pushrods rub against them. But then i'm sure any tube will with that happening, lol.
I ran the "big mouth" tubes that had tripple o-rings and they sealed fine other than that issue. I have since gone to wasserboxer tubes for added clearance for the pushrods.
