Good suggestions. I plan on taking this engine apart a few times to tinker on it. I was thinking about using some spray rubber-like product on the oil pan/windage tray rails, with the thought of not needing any sealer for the most part with the superformance gaskets, maybe I'll do the same on the intake.

I'll need some copper coating on the shim head gaskets, so thanks for that link.

Hi Tack red spray looks good as well.
