Group: I was looking for a gasket to fit between the "lid" and base of my 
str-14. Edelbrock no longer makes them or has them available. Calls to several 
other places yielded nothing. Local engine builder told me to use red "high 
heat"silicone sold by NAPA. He advised to clean both surfaces with lacquer 
thinner, spread a bead, put top on immediately, tighten every other bolt, run finger 
along "joint", then tighten other half of bolts. He explained that tightening 
down immediately will allow silicone to adhere to both surfaces, rather than 
only one if you let the silicone set for an hour or so before installing other 
piece. Have others used this approach? Successful? We plan to try it tomorrow.
An interesting aside: This engine builder recently did a motor for the 
present owner of Dan Guerney's # 48 Barracuda. Here in little old Richmond, KY!
