HWYSTR455, I'm getting a little lost trying to remember who said what so sorry if you said it already but do you completely cover your gasket with your Gorilla Snot or just dots here and there and maybe complely around the bolt holes?

[HWYSTR455]

I cover the gasket straight from the tube as best I can, then 'smear' it some with my finger. Then I spend the next 5 mins while it's setting up a little removing what's on my fingers! Sure, I play with it a little, making stringy things, rolling my finger tips to make fake boogers, pretend like I'm pulling it from my nose, you know, the usual stuff! You can try to put it on the cover too, but that never works for me.

That sounds like me. Straight to the heart or nose of the matter. Well it seems as though the idea of using just Permatex Right Stuff by itself isn't real popular and using a rubber or cork gasket with NO sealant is not used often either.

So I'll see if I can locate some snot today and use the rubber gaskets I already bought and go for it tonight. Unless of course some more opinions come this way. I'll probably go to a light coat of snot on the valve cover side of the rubber since this is an old block and used stainless covers. The bolt holes were a little warped and needed a light hammering so it's probably good to not just spot it.
