I'd take Henry's word-oh yeah, I did...through two engine builds- rather than somebody who has no visibility or credibility on his background or even his name on this forum.

I've been to Henry's shop to pick up assorted parts (gaskets, seals, head studs, sealant pack, etc) I purchased for my builds many moons ago. He was plenty busy, multiple engines in various states of process-some basic, some WOW, meaning he has a proven commodity, and isn't a flash in the pan that builds one engine every few years.

There is no OMISSION in his statements. Please stop spreading bad info, Lapkritis. Your the only one polluting this thread.

Henry's suggestions, unequivocally, result in a tight dry motor.

Unless one cannot get O-rings on without mangling them, that is.
