I think if I were to do it over again, I would have used Gasoila sealer. It’s something OMC used on fittings, etc. Not sure how hard it would be to get apart in the future though. Or, you need something that’s fuel proof, since it will be in direct contact with gasoline. I f you decide to make a gasket, use some thin gasket paper, if you use thick stuff it will show after the tank is reassembled. The Challeger may well be the slowest idling motor I have ever seen. The only other motor I have that will go that low is my Martin ’45’. After I got my Challenger running I became an instant Chris Craft fan. Now I have two Commander’s to go with it. One is restored and one is a clean original.
