Thanks for the reply, Matt. The 3m is what we use to call gorilla snot, I used to see old timers use it back in the 60-70s in garages i would hang around, so I thought it was the way to go, never thought about the temp rating. I'll definitely find something different this time. I'll make sure and stamp those bolt locations flat, they are sheet metal cover on edelbrock alum. heads. I thought about bolts with flange head bolts with some type of hard sealing washer rated for oil and heat.
