I bought a complete 'engine build sealant kit' from 'the vendor that shall not be named' and his website is down (funny how that started just a few weeks ago....).
The package has the following: Curil K2 Curil T Dirko Silicone Loctite Gasket maker 518 Loctite PST 565 Thread sealant Loctite Blue 242 thread locker Is anyone here familiar with where all these are used? I am ready to put the case together and I dont recall which Curil is for mating the two case halves together. Also, I have a JR cam package and I found a tube of Joe Gibbs Assembly grease with all of my various lubes. Is this the correct lube to use on the JakeR. cam lobes for break-in? Stu |

What is odd is that I swear that there was a response on here from The Cabinetmaker and now it is gone.
Perhaps I am losing my mind? Stu |

The K2 is for sealing the case halves, The J.Gibbs is for the cam and lifters.

"The J.Gibbs is for the cam and lifters."
Thanks that is what I figured. I dont remember buying it by itself, so it must have come in the cam package. Why do I have Curil K2 & Curil T. From the description on the website & pegasus, the two are essentially interchangeable. The Cabinetmaker - Sorry I thought it was you, but there was definitely one response to my question that is gone now. Stu |

I don't want to tell you wrong, so I will have to locate my document that tells the exact places to use the other ingredients. Where did I put it? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Thank you!
I am guessing that I have that exact document somewhere if I was organized! Stu |

Thanks for the question and the answer.
I rebuilt my 2.0 using Jake's old VHS video. I used the old Permatex sealants. I bought the sealants for the next engine many years ago. Couldn't remember what was what. Just finished the rebuild after 5-6 years. I have only one leak at 600 miles. Its either the oil cooler seals or the oil pressure gauge hose. Pulling the engine today to find it. I have a dye kit in it so I should be able to find the exact spot. |

But wee wee little curt curtis threw one of his famous hissy fits, couldn't handle that name, so it was deleted. so much cabinetshit. Yes K2 for the case halves. |
