[QUOTE="Todd Z, post: 1035700, member: 58941"] All the plastic sucks, its a bad design, and durability of plastic is not there..... ALSO the bottom seal, sideways ring, not even an o ring, is CRAP !!!! the aluminum is not machined clean so its planned obsolescence at its best !!!!! Apply a thin layer of Ultra copper between the housing and block OR use the paper gasket and youll never change it again !!! Been doing this since the aluminum one came out.... Ive installed about 20..... [/QUOTE]
