Default Does anybody use a gasket on their oil return flange?

I'm finishing up the install today and I was wondering about the oil return flange. It doesn't appear oil tight. What do you all use?

I used a paper gasket. If you need one I can give you one. BTW, was that your stuff at Thunder Fab this week?

If you're talking about the max rev stuff, yeah that would be mine. I'm getting the wastegate dp closed. Hopefully it'll be finished today.

I didn't know paper would holdup to the heat. Since that's the case, I'll just run to napa to get some gasket material and cut one out real quick.

it will hold. You are talking about the oil return right? I did see your stuff, looks good. If you order the gasket from majestic turbo it'll be there tommorow. they only cost $1. Or I can send you one..

Yeah it's the oil return. Thanks for the compliment. I know the bling will wear off soon, but there's nothing wrong with a little new owner's pride. I'd appreciate you sending the gasket, however I'm trying to get this finished tonight so I can drive up to the Houston HT meet tomorrow. I'll try cutting one myself. If it doesn't hold I'll take you up on your offer.
