    Stupid question time...

     



    Once again, it is time for me to make a fool out of myself.

    Should I use silicone on the gasket between the thermostat and the metal covering that goes over it? And if so is black RTV ok?

    Thin bead, not a lot so air bubbles dont form. RTV black is designed for oil contacts, but ive used it around the water ports in my intake with no ill effects. I say-go for it.

    The obscure "Allegheny Chinkapin" comes to mind for no apparent reason.
