Why would I use JB weld on my timing cover and water pump? Really? Go troll somewhere else.

You said you wanted to seal it. That will seal it very well.
Try to help a guy and this is the thanks you get.

It leaks because the gasket is bad, the surfaces aren't clean/smooth/true enough, or the bolts aren't staying tight. Bits of squeezed out RTV is an excellent way to clog an oil pickup. Unless Ford tells you to use it, don't.

I use permatex black(or whichever is the color that doesn't stay all wacky tacky.) Doesn't require much at all, just enough to keep the gasket in place. I've seen people put a nice thick bead on gaskets(a no no), as if the gasket itself won't seal it.

usually a thick bead would be used in lieu of a gasket, not in addition to.

The only time I bead it up all thick is on the ends of my intake manifold in the lifter valley(in which I don't use a gasket.) Its what all the cool kids do on their ford 5.0's(I did it cause I'm cheap.) Anything thicker then like the width of a piece of paper is overkiller.
