Kevin... i just realized you used the RA Super Seals in the past.. were they in this last engine as well?

i just think it's good for people to see that ANY seal can die from the smallest thing

Yea, I had the super seals in. They were still in tact, however the rear rotor apex seals were sagging in the middle cause of the detonation.
