So what do you guys that build transmissions use when you reassemble the case to keep it from leaking all over the place, I thought about using black RTV but figured that might not work that well on a actual flat surface... Any Idea's?

the red sealant thats used between aluminum on transmissions is called anaerobic sealant.

Thanx, I knew there was something other than RTV, that worked better.

Gray RTV works good, Jack from Jack's transmission says that its good to use.
