Just a quick heads up.....

Don't use RTV sealer on gaskets because it acts as a lubricant and allows the gasket to push out. Just completely clean both surfaces and use brake clean to remove any residual oil and use the gasket only...

OR

You can do like GM did, which was do not use a gasket at all. You can use anaerobic sealer or RTV, with the surfaces clean and bone dry put it together. Woks on engines and transmissions, just make sure it is allowed to dry and set up before exposing it to oil. This isn't for a race engine or transmission which is constantly being worked on, but it works great on a stock rebuild for the street.....

Your results may vary....
