Isn't this fun.
Hylomar is not the new "miracle glue". It was a recommended product back in the days when I worked on RollsRoyse engines. We tried it on 911 engine 25 years ago and it proved "inappropriate for long term case sealing." You'll also find it lacking for sealing cam tower to heads. These pieces are rarely flat. I didn't post this information with an ulterior motive, I don't "hate" Hylomar. The purpose of this thread is to provide information that will lead to the greatest likelihood of success.
Trial and error is the best teacher, so experiment away and learn as you go.
Good luck
Cheers
