Anyone have any advice on installing billet cam plugs? Should I put a little sealer at the top of the plug where it meets the camcover gasket?

i use a thin film of rtv sealant, then put the cover on snug so nothing squeezs out. next day i torque it down.

I installed mine dry and absolutely no leaks. I called z1 and they recommended no sealer on the billet cam plugs.
