was wondering until i have time to pull engine out and put b20 in.. can i seal it up with some gasket glue until i have a weekend off? or something else?

Hondabond. I personally use it, and it's one of the best IMO!

What kind of gasket is it? Can you just replace the gasket or cut out a new one from some gasket sheet?

Or is it a lot harder to replace than I imagine? lol

put it this way dougie, it would save me AT LEAST a days work pulling the engine out and then replacing the gasket :) i ended up putting a bit of permatex blue silicone, it was the only one that was sensor safe... i didnt want to wreck anything

May be a dumb question but where do you get Hondabond from?

Use a piece of gaffa tape.
Contact "Johnson & Johnson" for application data.
& stay off boost.
