What is the recommended case sealer?
I've seen several options with a wide price variation but which one should I use? - Gasgacinch - Permatex® Aviation Form-A-Gasket® No. 3 Sealant - other? Thanks. |

It does seem like builders are all over the place with what they use. I found some info about aviation 3H. Even in aircraft engines it has a designed life, I think I read 1200 hours...estimate 3 years in a car. I am in this for the long haul, not 3 years. Then stories about Loctite....if you ever have to crack the engine again, you will be sorry you used loctite. Just things I have read. |
