Hi;
When installing new Head gaskets what sealant is best for use between
the large rubber head gasket and the cylinder head?
Bentley calls for using sealing compound # D 000 400 01, which I do not
have access to.
I have heard that a product called Curil T is very good, but it would take
me a week to get it.
Are any of the Permatex products acceptable?  What has worked for you?
Thanks for any recommendations
Rod..
