Best sealant for T56? I'm wrapping up a rebuild, and was going to use black RTV but the stuff I scraped off was a red glue looking kinda stuff.
Suggestions on what to use? This would obviously be the bellhousing to case, and case to tailshaft sections.

I use ultra black sealant as well and it works great. That red stuff is commonly used on new Tremec TKO series 5 speeds. I forget what its called but its kind of messy to clean off when doing rebuilds.

Thats anaerobic sealant, which I hate as well. I use ultra black, ultra blue, and sometimes high temp red. Never use ultra gray, as you will just about have to break the case to get it back apart.
