To me, that case chip looks like a great excuse to go V111

 

:-) That's going to be my advice from now on.

 

Permatex Ultra Grey does the same job without the slight miss match the gasket thickness will give you.

 

back in the early 80s we did a 6 cylinder dart engine overhaul for a shop loner - when we came back in on a Monday the engine was laying on the floor as the slant 6 was not happy staying on the engine stand - the oil filter housing that is attached to the block broke off - JB weld was actually a new product back then so we used a copper tube for the oil holes and glued it back on the engine - had nothing to loose - we used the car for 5 maybe 6 years and sold it to one of the guys in the shop who took it to calif

my story about jb weld been a believer since

 

Hi all! Im putting my '93 Evo back together with a cometic case saver gasket on the inner primary. Can anyone advise if the O-ring is still used in conjunction with the case saver gasket or is the O-ring omitted? Thanks, AJ.

 

Welcome to the Forum
It is always best to start a new thread for each new question
While I haven't used the case saver gasket I would think you don't need the o-ring if you use the gasket.

 

Plus one on this.

 

That JB weld steel stuff will work better if you throw it as far away from your bike as possible. I have NEVER had any luck with anything that had JB on the tube.

The steelstick does dry very hard, but in 42 yrs. of custom metalwork, I think a like-metal fix is the only good fix. Tried jb several times, never happy with results. Just my zero cents worth. Ken

 

No, that's the point of the case-saver gasket. Use the gasket, or RTV (which I would go with instead of a gasket), and toss the o-ring.
