I have a Ocean pro cylinder and the included base gasket is plastic. Should I put some sealant on the gasket? Or can I run the base gasket that came for Wiseco? I was told I had to run the base gasket maybe for squish. plastic or poly gasket 1.6mm wiseco .5mm
I guess this would change port timing also. I need help fast!!! Thomas

I just took my engine apart that had one of those gaskets on it. It did not have any sealant. Whoever advised you to use it probably did so for good reason. My pay to double check with a reputable builder.

I did a leak down test and have a leak between the base gasket and jugs what sealant should i use? leak down was 7.5 lbs after 10min and 9 psi to start.
