AMS Wet sump pan sealing: Solution
I know most of these pan owners hang out in this section. Just trying to get some input. Here is a link to my original thread in the engine section.

I have, but I ain't gonna tell ya
But from memory I think there's only two solutions that have worked. One being *** loads of high quality RTV, torquing down slowly and evenly, and letting it sit there for at least a week to fully dry. The other being what we talked about which is gasketing and studing the pan. Neither are guarantees of course. Not sure what others have done.

I will give them a call, thanks! I also ordered a 1/8" thick silicone sheet MILspec'd rated up to 500F. Attempting to make a gasket similar to Balrok's.

Kevin @ Evolution Dynamics was a great help. After messing with the pan it settled down more reducing the 3mm gap. Going to seal her up with good old sealant. Thanks for the Help!
