I was very interested by the POC newsletter article. You're right, it doesn't specifically address whether the author (Greg Brown) condones using sealant on the bearing webs. But from my read, I think it may have been implied. The article suggests using 574, applying it with a roller, and tightening the perimeter bolts first. And he talks about following the factory manual. Have you consulted that recently to see exactly what it says with respect to this issue? I may do that tonight, but I only have the ancient volumes, for engines up to 78 or so.

Steve, what's a cutoff acid brush?

The '84-89 Carrera manual says to apply it to sealing surface.
The 964 manual is less specific; it just says to apply it to case half.
