The one piece oil pan gasket is one of the of best gaskets over 3 or 4 piece ones for sbcs. I never had any leaks using them on my motors.
i had to change my timing cover/balancer seal a while back.i've read about oil creeping past the seal onto the shaft and ultimately onto the outside of the balancer.before i reinstalled the balancer i put a dab of rtv on the key way portion as cheap insurance.78elk said:I removed the fan and shroud, getting ready to pull the harmonic balancer. Trying to figure if I can slow the leak down.
