[V8] Dizzy Seals

[Ron Wainwright]

Scott, lets not sound the alarm off here...I said use
some...some Black RTV GASKET MAKER on the dizzy
flangegaskets..I mean howe many listers even know
there is a dizzy flange....never mind a dizzy flange
gasket?!!

 I have in the over 10 V8 t-belts I've done ever run
into a problem using the Black RTV Gasket maker..END
OF STORY!! & I as I noted....I only use it on the Blue
flange gaskets at the back of the head.
