This engine was sealed using the methods that Henry suggests in terms of the sealant for each area. However, Henry was not involved with the engine sealing process, nor did I speak to him personally about any of the procedures. Instead, I started a thread to collect the "consensus" on the sealants used to try and find the best solution for me. See http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showthread.php?threadid=284737

I have quite a few questions and observations from this process. The first was noted by len911 - what is that relief there for? I do not get the purpose...

Second (observation) - I seemed to be partially blocking the oil feed thru the forward studs around the #1 bearing. I will take more care in this area upon reassembly.

Third (observation) - I seemed to use a bit too much ThreeBond on the case perimeter. Less would have done just as good of a job.
