[Healeys] 100 balance pipe gland seal ideas

[Alan Seigrist]

Is there any conventional wisdom for making this seal?  This is on the
balance pipe between the carbs on the 100 engine.

I think originally it was some mixture of fibre/cloth and a tarlike
substance wound in a circle and compressed when assembled.  The o-rings
they provide in head gasket kits are a laughable substitute.

Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Alan
