the prices vary depending on what you need. the bare minimum would be like ~200 and thats just replacing all the soft seals. or get the RA kit for around 500. but you cant figure out till you open her up and see whats bad

thye get hot and brittle. thats about it. the first motor i tore apart was the na outta my 87. i blew the seals. they got so hot that they were literly baked to the housings and irons. i didnt even try to clean them off, was more curios as to how the thing ticked, but if you tear down a motor with good seals you'll see the difference.
