  • Loctite changed #'s can I substitute????

    I just took the last page of your Engine Removal/Installation for the 700 engine with me to the local NAPA store to get all the sealers/lubricants for installing my SBT engine that hopefully will be here this week. Seems Loctite no longer has #2 Gasket maker. Parts man said Permatex #2 form a gasket seleant is "probably" the same, is he correct??? Also, Loctite Copper Gasket adhesive "might" now be called RTV 5920 copper high performance silicone. Should I use that in place of Loctite copper Gasket adhesive?

    Thanks

    Correct on #2, not on the copper (Permatex and Loctite are the same company). RTV is not gasket treatment. Copper gasket treatment is in an aerosol can - tell him it's the spray copper treatment for head gaskets, he might know it by that description.
