Bookmarked! Great info on this thread.

100 hrs until leak but I had a Hoyt stg 1 from day 1. How bad is too bad to for a new gasket? It's just a slight leak so far.

Homemade gasket and light RTV on each side. No worries! Just don't block oil flow ports!

Mine leaks, never had any problem though, I just keep an eye on the oil level. I've had the gasket changed 3 or 4 times, but it's out of warranty now, so it'll just have to leak lol. As CB said, I should probably check the case bolts though.

My motor and the big motors Cody build don't have a case gasket and seem to be holding up pretty well

Red loctite, but you have to get rid of all oil residue first and let it dry before getting any on it. Kinda hard to do. I think I saw a line from loctite that was a little more resistant to oils also, you may look into that. The normal shit at the autoparts store only works well if its really clean.

I've seen loctite in a tape form kinda like Teflon plumbing tape I wonder if that would be more resistant to oil

yes yamabond is what he used on my motor, didnt machine the block just the internals. he squared the case and the block and machined the internals for end play. still use the orings but no gasket.

Yeah that's kinda what I figured money talks lol. It sounds like a pretty solid way of improving that weak spot on these motors.
