I came across these Porsche 356/912 Sealing washers and gaskets.
The washers are beveled for the use of an o ring gasket
What are your thoughts on these being used on a 36 hp case?
I really like the design and the idea of not have to use a gasket sealer . on the nuts and wahsers.
Plus the Porsche look with the acorn nuts.
Feedback welcomed

Good enough for Porsche, good enough for VW. Can't see why these wouldn't work as long as the case surface is clean and fairly flat and pit free.

yes run them! . they look cool. ive seen them used on 36's. i still would use a dab of sealer under the washer to be safe but not needed. i just hate any kinds of leaks.
