Hey all After putting the new head gasket on the 2L and sealing it with Koppercoat, thankfully the oil that was getting into the coolant has ceased! I have several hours on the rebuilt motor, most of

You don't want to run synthetic until your engine is broken in. It lubricates so well that rings and bearings won't seat. THe higher cost is offset by the fact that you don't have to change it as oft

That is a statement of fact (or opinion) but does not answer the question. Why is Koppercote (or any other gasket sealant) a bad idea (or at least not recommended) when installing a U20 head? Gary Mc

Why is Koppercote when installing a U20 I think I can answer that as I debated awhile before doing it myself. As the motor heats and cools during operation, the cast block and aluminum head expand a

Not the worst idea, either. I've used Koppercoat on mine for over 25 years and have never had a blown head gasket. -- Gordon Glasgow http://www.gordon-glasgow.org

I believe Mike was saying "it's not the best idea" to apply the KopperKote AFTER installing the head gasket! Which is a way of reading the first post. Not the worst idea, either. I've used Koppercoat

I have used anti-seize in a spray can on my head gaskets and it worked fine also. It alllows the gasket to slide similar to the new Felpro gaskets w/silicon on them. Not the worst idea, either. I've

What about oversizing and sleeving the oil passage with a crush tube (I think this was in the Rallye insert many moons ago)? Is this fix no longer in vogue? Toby
