DC Inspection/Hand Hole Covers

(quoted from post at 18:30:02 11/16/22) make them , faster than hunting for some.
Hi Temp Red Silicone is a match for color, My DC pulling engine builds all are put together that way, no gaskets at all, not even a head gasket.
 
If you try to use gaskets make sure your covers are flat. Most are warped and bent from over tightening so do not be surprised when they leak. Silicone cures that problem, but they need to be clean.
 
For you J Hamilton

This pic is my 370 CID stock stroke W no headgasket, Just copper fire rings made out of .060 soft copper electrical wire with Red silicone to seal the deck water passages and areas where oil can get out at the pushrod area, thin strip around studs to keep water from coming up. 5576 head with piston crown fitted to the contours of the head for compression.

DC3, any of the reds , loctite, permatex for a couple, can be bought at any good hardware store, I suppose WalMart would also have it.
 
You are certainly welcome J. Glad we can put up some of the stuff we do in the pulling world to try to make Case competitive with the big guys. I have pictures of the custom pistons and rod combo if you would like to see them.
