I still don't understand why they can't make some sort of seal, but I accept that they can't.
Rusty, I couldn't hold back on this one. Think about it, 1600°F exhaust gas in a zone of back pressure, and therefore heat transfer, bearings and about 50k rpms! If you can think of a more difficult spot for a seal please let me know about it!
