I'm not trying to change anybody's opinion, just helping this guy out. I think I have it pretty much figured out by now anyways.

i think what t4eg is saying is that yea honda didnt make high HP like us and we still dont use Copper spray.. its a bandaid and some of us make what the pro teams make if not just under

 

I got ya. Like I said, I don't care to change anyone's mind. I don't believe it is a bandaid, but to each his own. I use it on almost every motor I assemble, until my customers complain, I will continue to. I don't think applying or not really makes or breaks the motor anyways, I just happen to believe there are benefits to it.

 

I wouldn't consider it a bandaid either. I view it as just that much more assurance that it will seal. People with bad surfaces aren't the only people who use it.

Most, depends on how much they want to spend and how extensive the build is. Everyone has different budgets.

 

gotcha. my personal opinion i wouldnt Cs a flat surface.. an uneven one yes if they are being cheap

 

I use it on our race motor every time the head comes off. Whether we resurface or not. I believe there are other benefits to it than covering up small imperfections.

 

educate me im very interested i like to know all opinions helps me understand ever direction.

If you've had the deck and head resurfaced perfectly flat, then you should not use it. If its only off by 0.001-0.002 then spray 2-3 light coats.</TD></TR></TABLE>

yup i only use hylomar here...

copper spray HA!

 

i use copper spray on most of the metal gaskets.. i love that stuff.

 

mines 0-ringed with no spray
