Anyone ever try, with success, to install an oil pump with just sealant; no gasket?
(My melling oil pump from the source showed up without a gasket. just thinking maybe I don't really need one.)

cut a piece from a manila folder, one of those thin red yellow or green ones and set it on the face and use a ball pein hammer to outline the oil passage/bolt holes then cut em out, add your favorite spray on gasket cement & you're good.

I got some oil pump gaskets from "BIGBLOCKAHOLIC" who's here on Moparts. You may want to contact him. Russ:)

The pump rebuild kit is still available from the dealer. I just bought one a couple of months ago.

Got one coming from Kevin at Hughes. What a great guy! I was embarrassed to even ask him to take the effort for just a few bucks, but he was eager to help. Next time I'm in the market for some parts...... Straight to Hughes!!
