What’s the best sealant to seal the shims and cylinders to the case?

QUOTE(914Sixer @ Feb 27 2022, 05:10 PM)  I am stuck in dark ages and use Permatex Aviation sealer. I like the Permatex Aviation too, used it to seal the case but I think I’ll try the Curil T2 for the cylinders and shims. |

I used Permatex Copper. From cylinders, to heat exchangers, to Harley exhaust, it hasn't let me down.

That rather expensive orange stuff, and I forget the name. Ford engine lube is real good smelly stuff for bearings, but don't get it on the cylinders.
