Hi Pascal, unless it's very deep and long enough so it larger than the ring itself, i would not put nothing there, combustion temperature are so high that most product will melt. That ring/head gasket will compress and sould fill the gap, but again, if not to deep.

Anyway I tried to remove them with lapping compound and laping them with the cylinders, but no luck. Is there a sealant that I can use or maybe JB Weld? Thanks > >Pascal >'84Westy |
