Cam Cover Sealant
OK, whats up with the "more expensive than gold (or gasoline)"
sealant for ZR1 cam covers? Why can't you just use non-hardening form-a-gasket stuff? Or since the the pair are so highly machined to match exactly, why is anything necessary? Or why not just use a gasket? Too much time on my hands.......... |

Re: Cam Cover Sealant
It's not that expensive, it's 30 bucks or less. And one tube will get both cam covers done.

You are right, about $50 plus S&H from White Racing Products, I just wondered why this stuff. You answered the question that it has to be thinner. Thanks, Ted |

California has no winter. Just slight fluctuations centered about 75 degrees (F). My project will actually be this summer as per your and Roberts schedule. I just want to be prepared. Still deciding colors......... |
