I have one that should be in, tomorrow am. I'll do it tomorrow night I guess.
I might just RTV it to at least test the car out. But I would prefer a gasket.

The only problem with rtv on an automatic is any excessive amount will get into the tranny fluid and could possibly gum up the valve body. I seen it once with an Allison automatic. The company installed an aftermarket pto and used rtv instead of a gasket. Bad move since the pto should have been shimmed. But there biggest mistake was they used so much rtv it destroyed there transmission.

I have a few on order locally, but it will wait till saturday when I have a gasket. No point doing it tomorrow since i work 10-1030.
Only thing is whether or not the car will work or what issue will come up next.
