In this video we install a one piece oil pan gasket.

Very effective video. FELPRO's instructions (actually included in the instruction sheet) are to put RTV across the bridge of the entire front and rear seal area on block-side only. They said that in intensive testing, this was a significantly important factor to preventing leaks.

I installed this gasket on my small block, even did it upside down on the stand, did the rtv in the corners and guess what’s leaking? The front and rear valleys! I have my tranny out to replace it, and discovered that the rear main and the valleys are leaking!

I replaced my rear main seal in March and was deathly afraid I’d have another leak. Used this same gasket in hopes to have the first 350 in the history of man to not leak oil. So far, so good!

@jakefriesenjake2 жыл бұрын
If you really want no leaks ever, run a Vac pump on the crank case. If there's a hole in the gasket or seal, oil won't be dripping out, but air will be sucked in, instead. Pricey tho.....

YOU USED THE WRONG GASKET!!! There are two different gaskets. You needed OS34509T or 1885. This part # has a thin front seal (1/4") for pre-1975 OEM pans. GM went to the thick seal (3/8") in 1975. To avoid a 3rd part # they just added a passenger side dipstick to the thick front seal gasket in 1978. Your dipstick being on the driver side along with the obvious gap between the pan and the block suggests pre 1975 oil pan requiring the thin front seal.

Not necessarily, depends on your oil pan. Most aftermarket pans are the thick seal. I have a pre 75 block that uses the thick front seal.

I love these one piece gaskets, but you have a decision to make in most cases. You see, a gen1 stock cork rail gasket is 0.090" thick, but these are 0.140". What this means is their "thin" front pan seal portion may or may not get much of a crush - it's going to be close. It matches the thickness of orginal stock front seal bang on, but... you might not get close enough to enjoy that because rail thickness stops you out. In my case, I discovered this with a pan bought in 1994 - I wound up switching from the "thin" to the "thick".

Thanks for the video and instruction. Greatly appreciated. I see that you apply some RTV at the 90 degree joint on the outside pan side of the gasket. Fel-Pro's recommendation is on the block side only. What has been your experience with this since they also say that RTV where it should not be gets in the way and causes leaks? I appreciate your experience since their way has failed once already and here I am with a second gasket and $50 the poorer. The time and effort of getting under the car is more costly. Thanks very much.
