this is what I've been using -



it doesn't set up near as fast as "the right stuff," but i'm never in a hurry on a rebuild. as long as you've got 24 hours cure time, you're good to go.

a lot of guys swear by "the right stuff," but i'm pretty sure it starts to set up in 5 minutes or so. personally, I don't work that fast -

I've found that "Great Stuff" works very well for difficult jobs like china walls and valve covers.
