Best Sealants for RV8 Upper Engine Joints

[cockie55]

Any consensus from experience on what sealant product gives best results for the following RV8 upper engine joints:

A. Hylomar (as specified) for Plenum and Ram Housing joints noting ACL seem to only repackage just two Hylomar products for the Australian market.

1. Hylomar liquid (available as brush top and aerosol spray) OR
2. Hylomar thicker liquid (available as Aerograde medium grade in a 100gram tube)???

B. Others for Plenum and Ram Housing joint such as Loctite or Permatex etc?

C. Is a gasket dressing to underside of rubber rocker cover gasket a good idea (not to be confused with a high tack impact sealant joining the gasket to the cover) and if so which product best suits rubber (Hylomar is not recommended for rubber)???

D. An anti-seize dressing to upper engine bolts (other than oil)???

Cheers in anticiaption

my 3 favourite sealants, in no particular order

Holden Head Stud Sealer - anywhere where a bolt/stud goes into a water gallery
Three-Bond grey - Holden part number M40510 - use anywhere where you would use a silicone type liquid gasket, around $45 for a 250g tube, exxy but more than twice the size of a regular tube
Permatex - anywhere where you would use a normal gasket in addition to the gasket

I don't normally recommend shops but these guys are very good: L. R. Series - specialists in land rover, land rover series and range rover - gearbox, axle, transmission parts, spares and major units (http://www.lrseries.com) and the part number you want is: RTC3347.
