Thread: What Sealant for rotor pack and snout?

I was wondering what sealant to use on the snout and rotor pack. I know its anaerobic but i'm not sure what that means. Is it the stuff that doesn't dry? Anyone have a part number?

i think its 518 gasket sealent,

anerobic means its seals without air.

I bought a nonhardening sealant. Permatex item number 80016. Would this work?

I got away with ultra black but i also did let it dry with no oil overnight while i got the headers and everything squared away. one day actually turned into 4 as i went through 2 dipsticks on the header install.

It sealed.

However the proper method is to use is the GM sealant or permatex anaerobic sealant.

Awesome i'll stop at autozone tom and pick some up. Thanks.
