I was thinking oh damn I haven`t seen another set of those flame arrestors I had, then I realized oh wait those are mine lol

Yep !!!! Covers and all !!!! 😊

Dan - what silicone do you like the best for this app? (I also owe you for letting me borrow those props years ago....!)

Gil had to originally put silicone on my transom even after fairing and sanding the transom "flat" as could be achieved. Not much, just a bead on the leading edge of the o-ring (or seal) I ordered some new o-ring material to make my own seal & to re-install my box after some repair / maintenance. The stuff on there is pliable but damn it's hard to scrape off. Had to pry the box off.

Need silicone type/brand suggestion to get it re-installed this weekend.

I am thinking the "3m Marine Grade Silicone Sealant" (NOT 4200 or 5200!)

Sorry to mini hi-jack Eric, but I thought the responses were interesting.

I went with a very small amount of 4200 on the new seal seamed roll work great

I use the Right Stuff by Permatex

you might want to think about putting steam dumps where those allen plugs are in the intake.

Ok so with the new foam seals on the transom assembles everything cleaned and checked 500 times I’m ready to have a evening of install on the back of the boat. Transom assembly’s tabs fitting ect. Is there a tq spec on the inner transom assembly nuts ? My biggest fear is a leak on the transom assembly I don’t know why lol it’s all new but that would be a *****. I got all new ss nuts and mounting stuff. Excited for final assembly now just have to get my helper and some 4200!
