Engine Builders-favorite oil pan sealing tips?

[ERA Chas]

El,
Yes I did. I used Barry's Motorcraft silicone recommendation and the Milodon gaskets. The gaskets are very high quality and they're even packaged flat and whole-not folded in half like the FailPros. They have a nice rigid feel and composition.
So far, so good. I ran it lightly at first and and checked the studs and serrated nuts the next day cold. They all needed a quarter turn for snug. The area near the pressure relief valve is bone dry as is the face of the block plate.
Ran the a$$ off it today so will check the floor tomorrow. If any drops you will probably hear my scream in Houston...
PS- The new clutch disc is working really nicely but I can only get reverse about half the time. Don't know why. I set the air gap and adjusted the fork rod about a million times. I'm getting closer.
Thanks for asking.

Mine was seeping because of a conflict between the Armondo pan and rear main bolts. I just modified the bolt heads a bit further and am about to button it back up using all the preferred methods/parts/special sauces above. I won't jinx us, but if there is screaming from either of us we need to find a watering hole to commiserate; I am in Houston too.
