what does everyone use on their housings?
I switched over to a chrome housing and can't get the f%&king thing to seal against my LD340 intake - the old aluminum housing sealed perfect.
I've machined the surface of the intake to remove a little pitting
I've machined the backside of the housing to remove the chrome plating - though maybe that was an issue
I've used gaskets (factory ones), gasket adhesive, sealant and even stuff from work called chesterton 860 with a spray activator at 500 bucks a kit.
.......still leaks.....even when the damn trucks cold sits all winter
I'm thinking of taking the housing to work and machining an o-ring groove in it.....opinions?
thanks guys
