    Great idea on the all-thread and nuts Sal. Just back them out about 1/8” one they bottom out so they aren’t too long once everything compresses together.
    Just don’t even THINK of using all-thread as any permanent part of your engine!

    That one piece oil pan seal leak has been discussed alot before. Now I cut the ends off and use RTV as well. No leaks that way. The side rail part of the gaskets work well, but it begs the question of why not just use RTV for the whole thing and save $30.

    Black RTV right?
     

    Its really me....I fixed my caps lock .

    I prefer ultra RTV. Color of your choice

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
