ThreeBond 1184 is the equivalent of Yama-Bond or Honda-Bond which are Brand specific sealants used and sold by the various motor cycle manufacturers. They are specifically designed for sealing aluminium surfaces without a gasket, I use them in my early Alfa gearboxes with machines flange surfaces.
Probably not relevant to the average 7 restorer, but I went a size up on the block-to-crankcase studs for the race cars, in my case 10mm cap screws fitted in from underneath the crankcase. Some light machining was required as was trimming the head of the cap screw. I documented this in my 'Supercharged single seater' thread.
I also made up 2 additional hold down studs using aluminium square bar at either end of the block on the valve chest side, also detailed on the same thread.
Aye
