I have a quick question that I couldn't find in the archives...I bought a used vortech BOV, no gasket was included. Can I use something like hondabond or some other liquid gasket, or do I have to use the paper gasket material(such as the 12x18sheets Mr. Gasket sells)?

 

You can buy a sheet of paper gasket mat'l at a.a. parts.

 

Im sure you could get by using silicone or something. Or you could always go pick up a sheet of gasket material from the parts store and make your own gasket. Ive made a few exhaust gaskets with cardboard that have worked fine

 

i used hondabond for my bov. now that i think about it, i use it on almost everything.lol

It's good on pasta also.

 

decided to just go buy some from pepboys even though I hate tha place 1/16" 10x26 gasket material for only 6 bucks. If I was sure it'd work I would've just used hondabond, but since I've never heard of using it on a BOV, I figured why chance it on something as cheap as a gasket for a BOV.

 

i always use silicone or hondabond.
