I think he uses silicone sealant. I worked for an engine builder. And he always used FelPro Brush Tack. On the pipe plugs and the freeze plugs. It comes in small metal can with a brush in the cap. Its dark blue, and goes on like a liquid, then will tack up and dry. 👍👍
Hi Brent! Do you know the weight difference between a late 80s OEM Ford 5.0 roller block and that beefy Dart 8.2" deck SHP block? (4.125" bore) I'm seeing all sorts of random weights listed on the internet.
I heard your comment about the tingle in your foot. I definitely feel for you. Do you suffer from sciatica? I’ve had two MRI’s and several lower lumbar shots between L3 and L1. I tried whaat an old doctor told me to try, and I do not suffer ANY pain. I’ve been in and out of pain for over four years now, but when I started take it Vitamin B3 niacin-amide 10:29 , I got to were I had almost no pain. Niacin-amide is cheap and I take 1 or 2 pills a day. It’s your call, I am not a doctor, but I took the experience of an old doctor and got relief. You c@nt hurt yourself taking this vitamin, and you can talk to your doctor, you prerogative. Best regards Chet Marcotti, NH
