I went in asking for Gask-a-cinch and the oldtimer at my favorite flaps told me this is the stuff to have: a tube of 3M Super Weatherstrip and Gasket Adhesive. Any experience with this stuff? What do you fellas use?

I could not find the gask a cinch. probably illegal in california. i live in california, maybe try napa. i think kragens carries it. i coat one side of the gasket with it and then the valve cover. let it dry for about 5 minutes and stick them together. you need to be accurate when you join them together because you only get one shot at it. once the gasket touches the valve cover theres no repositioning it. the reason i like gask-a-cinch over the 3m is when its time for new gaskets they come of with a putty knife with minimal prep. usually a wire brush will do. the 3m takes alot of work to get off. IMO. not near as messy also. |
