I have a small drip that can't be stopped and I noticed that the thermostat housing rocks back and forth on the intake and I tried to balance it out some but still not great. If it is ok to double up do I need to use RTV or ultra copper also? Thx If it is 1 of those chrome Mopar Performance Chinese specials... Toss it in the dumpster, you can sand it, grind it, put multiple gaskets and layers of RTV it will still leak.. The problems is the low quality recycled material used.... Get yourself an OE cast iron clone from Napa or the nice billet one from Mancini.. Just my $0.02...
