Valve Cover Gasket Sealant

Post by jrcotner »

Is Permatex Aviation Sealant okay to use on the valve cover side of cork gaskets? I have some left over from the motor rebuild so it's handy, but if it isn't suitable I'll spend the $10 to get what is needed.
Thanks,

It is the only sealant for the entire engine/drive train.
