I going to have to replace the oil pan on my 70 Cougar with 351c. The previous owner had used an over sized drain plug and when I changed oil, I could not get it to stop dripping. I tried a double over sized plug and it sealed great on first installation, but when I backed it out to check for thread shavings, it stripped when I re-installed it.
I have ordered a new pan and two piece fel-pro gasket set. I don't want any oil leaks - already tired of my trans leaks from the FMX. What gasket sealant do folks recommend and should it be applied to both surfaces, or just the engine or just pan.
Thanks -- Larry
