BBC oil pan leak
 
I am replacing the oil pan gasket on my GEN IV 454. It has a 4 piece gasket and I was wondering what is the best parts and method to install.

I am told felpro has a one piece rubber gasket. Has anyone here ever tried one? Are they any good?

Use a one piece gasket, problem solved

Do you recommend any RTV with the one piece?

I have used the mr gasket and the felpro one pc - no issues with either - I like the light gray color of the mr gasket better - I still use a small amount of RTV on the corners as insurance
