    I understand there are three parts I'll have to reseal since I'm removing the snout to replace the coupler.

    1) Snout to rotor housing

    2) Rotor housing to S/C body

    Are there any gaskets at all, or do I just use the sealer Chris sells on rollingperformance.com?

    Any loctite to be used anywhere? I seem to recall someone saying that in something I read about this project at some point.

    Just use a very very thin, small amount of the sealer Chris sells. The surfaces are nearly perfectly machined and you'll squeeze almost everythig you put in there, right back out.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    go to napa and get anaerobic sealer. Jeez bill you tell me now lol. I put quite a bit of sealer on it and it made a huge mess when i torqued it down. It's very sticky to clean up to.
