TIM-- I LIKE TO STUD THE PAN RAILS OF THE BLOCK. I USE 1/4-20 SET SCREWS. THEY'RE CHEAP & TUFF & KEEP THE GASKET FROM SLIDING. I DO THE SAME THING WITH THE VALVE COVERS. IT MAKES THE GASKET SO MUCH EASIER TO PUT ON. I'M ALSO A FIRM BELIEVER IN USING ONLY FEL-PRO GASKETS. THEY'RE ONLY A FEW CENTS MORE THAN THE EL-CHEAPO ONES, & THE QUALITY IS SECOND TO NONE.
