Would Yamabond 4 be ok to use to seal Type 4 cylinder bases and shims to case? Tom Wilson recommends Permatex aviation 3 which I believe is now called Permatex aviation Form A Gasket 3, but I have a fresh tube of Yamabond on hand and wondered if that would work just as well. Will soon be doing deck height and valve train geometry so starting to get materials gathered.
Thanks. |

I used yamabond on case halves and hylamar everywhere else, three years of driving and no problems. I like hylamar because it does not harden or leak. good enough for rolls Royce, good enough for me. fwiw.
