ultra gray is the ****
hondabond just costs too much
though if i was putting 500 dollars worth of tranny parts in.
I'd pop 10 bucks for honda-bond. Cant beat OEM

If you plan to pull the tranny apart alot of times use a very thin application of Hylomar (the blue gooey stuff). With Hylomar you don't have to scape it off the reseal it as it is non-hardening. It just wipes off.
Otherwise Honda bond or permatex ultra blue is cool.
Note: Do NOT use 20ft-lbs on the 12mm tranny case bolts. This will stretch the bolts and you never reach that torque reading. The torque figures in the Helms manual is usually too high.
I use 18ft-lbs dry or 16ft-lbs if you get hondabond or silicone on the threads.
