Leaking Thermostat Housing. Thinking on billet with O Ring

Installed the Billet housing with the o-ring the other day and have gone for a couple of drives. Just reporting back that there are no leaks. Yes it’s expensive but it solved a problem for me. I tried one gasket, two gaskets, different goop (RTV, thermostat housing sealant, #2) none of which worked.

Using quality parts that get the job done easily and quickly at low stress levels are worth a little extra money.
