First off, im doing this on a KA24E.

I have the pan out, but I banged it around and it was a tight fit coming out. With that being said, I don't think I could get the pan back in with RTV on it without messing it all up, so I have a proposal. Could I bead it with RTV then put the Felpro Cork gasket on top of it then bolt it in?

Thanks.
Nick.

The cork gasket really needs RTV on both sides but if you can bead a layer on top without really smearing it, go for it. The gasket will at least help in the areas where it's thin.

Alright, so kinda do a little sandwhich type thing and put RTV on both side and bolt it up?

If I can't do that, I can try putting as much RTV on top when I have it positioned where I need it to be.

Think that would work?
