Silicon sealant - 'Y' manifold

Post by mattykerby01 » Mon Apr 20, 2009 8:42 am

Hi Guys,
Going to change the cam belt this weekend and will need to remove pipes after the intercoolers and wondered if anyone knows the correct silicon sealant to use as this design with only 1 screw holding the pipes into the manifold is poor.

Thanks
Matt

You should renew the o rings at the same time.

Any ideas where to get these from. The Stealer has to get them from Germany on a 7-10 day leadtime.
