relative4 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I'm doing my right valve cover gasket. What kind of RTV do people like for this job? I'm OK with a long curing time, I won't need to fire up the engine for a couple days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xt2005bonbon Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I used ultrablack and it has given me good results. No leaks after 35k. But the engine was on a stand and I made sure there was zero oil on the mating surfaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
