This is a status report and follow up to my original request for info.
Thanks to all who responded. I did receive a recommendation from
Jonathan at Denis Welch. He recommended .012 clearance hot. I just
checked it out with that clearance and unfortunately it is still noisy.
At least I have the piece of mind that I am running the correct
clearance.
With regard to the gasket used. I have the same experience as Dave
Russell and used the same installation procedure i.e. copper gasket with
Copper Coat sealant. No leakage after 5,000 plus miles.
