1.) a gasket - isn't this "compartment" dry? Has anyone''s gasket come apart when you opened the case? Re-used the gasket?


2.) Yamabond?
i have heard engine builders swear by this stuff, but really - won't a small smear of silicon gasket do the same job?

Any change in peak hp is only going to be small, maybe 1 bhp at most and well within the 5% error expectation of a dyno run.  Don't worry about it.

Almost dry compartment, hence the gasket. 

Grease the gasket on both sides and it will seal perfectly but come off easily if you want to remove the cover again.

Cheers!
