Hi guys i had asked the question honda bond or three bond everyone said 3 bond. What is the difference between the 2 the honda bond is 11 a tube the three bond is 25 a tube what is the difference thanks. Also these are the pics of the ding i have in the case where the tranny and crank seperate. I had asked if i can use bond to fill ding and hope it works u guys wanted some pics so here are some the ding is on the part that seperates the crank and trany the ones near the bolt hole dont realy worry me i think those will be fine when the bolt tightens there it is the one on the flat that have me concerned let me know what you all think thanks

Do u think it would seal the ding in the pic. And the dings around the bolt hole do u think those will be a issue or is there enough flat to seal up

i never had much luck with that honda bond stuff. always made the gasket push out when the bolts were torqued. maybe youll have better experience

I got the three bond because everyone seems to like it I just wanted to know if u guys think after seeing the pic if u think it will seal up the ding for me both around the bolt and the one by its self

Best option would be to have the cases welded. But to get by I would fill the ding with some epoxy puddly or even jb weld. Then use a bit of the sealer. Should hold fine.

That's what I needed to know I was hoping the tree bond would help seal it up but if not I will have to take a different rout thanks for letting me know the three bond will not seal that ding that dose suck though nothing can be easy. Also the dings around the bolt hole are those anything to worry about are are they in a non worry area thanks again

take a better photo because i dont see no ding. but if its bad just put some jb weld in it. small ones the sealer will fill

The only ding I see is in the crank area where it looks like there was an accidental grinded spot. Is that what you are talking about?

Are the other dings you're talking about the closest bolt hole to the other ding were discussing? If so they should be fine. But filling them with a small amount of epoxy wouldn't hurt. You really need the crank sealing surface as flat as possible.

any time I have a ding in the aluminum I first knock down any high points with a hammer (very carefully) then lightly file or use a flat plate to make the surface flat again. Knocking down the material really helps from creating a large hole.
