After splitting the engine cases, what is recommended for resealing them?

Thanks!



Silk thread - on old Continentals.



Make sure that you use *SILK* -- NOT nylon thread! Silk will compress,
while nylon will cause fretting. Your overhaul manual should tell you
how to do this.

Also, use some either Hylomar (blue) or the pink Continental sealant.



Pink is for girls, Orval!
