I need to get a output shaft seal for my FMX and cant find anywhere to buy it. Ive found sites that carry torque converters, filters, and gaskets but have yet to find any that carries the output shaft seal. Any help is appreciated!

Wow lots of FMX parts!
Modulator: FMX / Fomoco 2 speed, BLUE stripe adjustable.
I saw this listed as adjustable? Anyone know anything about these. What adjusts. Upshift point?

inside the vacuum nipple on the modulator there'll be an adjustment screw, could be straight blade mini screwdriver or allen? but yeah it will affect the pressure against the diaphragm inside that reads vacuum vs oil pressure(governor) and will have some effect on shift points
 
for even more effect on shift points the FMX will respond similarly as other transmissions to shortening/lengthening of the modulator valve rod, shimming of the modulator, changing the weights in the governor and/or increasing pump regulator spring pressure
 
 
as mentioned in the link the modulator doesn't function under low vacuum(WOT) conditions, that's just governor vs oil pressure
