does the sump plate use regular washers or sealing washers ?
 
cant quite make it out in Waynes book .

my original setup on my 78 sc is looking like regular washer, spring washer regular nut. I was going to put on yellow zinc nyloc with a yellow zinc flat washer for that nice finished look but then wondered if I am supposed to be using some kind of aluminum sealing washer like the valve cover guides.

Thanks in advance.

Aluminum sealing washers.

The sealing washers aren't needed if the studs are loctited-they just prevent leakage past the threads. I'd say use whatever you think is prettiest-is that word?

We use a very thin coat of Curil T on both sides of both gaskets and large diameter steel washers.
The sealant prevents leakage and the larger washers prevent sump cover deformation.
Just another thought.

Get a box of nyloc flange nuts and make the nuts & washers one with each other. :D

Box of 50 yellow zinc class 10 (overkill) is $9 or a box of 100 white zinc class 8 is $5.37
