Do you know which size?

Some cowls are slightly larger than others (likely due to swap-outs with 172’s) but measure yours and then decide. Mine is the 1/2” P-seal (red, of course.)

The closest of Brown's rubber "P" seal to what my original fabric/felt seal is BA-173609. If you're after a more original looking rub strip Brown sells VS-6491. Air Power has 0450234 rub strip in stock. Don't know how long that strip is. (The original p/n you're looking for is 0450234-13 and -14). Now if you really want to get original check out Dennis Harbin's C-140 restoration blog entries in May and October 2013.
