Re: Gasket
use case sealer like "YAMABOND" or locktite brand "GASKET ELIMINATOR" yamabond has been around for years .it works pretty good but thee two pieces must not have any gaps JB weld and a good flat file should fix any imperfections in the gasket surface . J prefer the locktite but its free from work and easy to come by surface prep is the same (clean, flush, gapless fit) gaskets are sometimes unnecesesary and always overpriced. you could be riding tomorrow for about twenty bucks total. good luck!
