Teflon encapsulated coolant seals?

What's the deal with these seals and where can you get them? I heard they're way better than the stock ones. I know you can get them from Hayes but....don't know if I trust them.

I think you can get them through RA. At least I know they come with their rebuild kits.

"RA" means Rotory Aviation. There is a thread about this same subject in the Rotory Performance section.
