I ordered it from Chembar, Inc in Gahanna Oh. (614) 751-6582
1 ea Lord Maxlox MX/T6 - 50 mi adhesive and 1 ea DP DK-119 calking gun adapter $33.00 for all including shipping to Louisiana. Used not even 1/2 of the tube and believe me, the stuff smells strong and is strong. I have no doubt that the plastic oil deflector will be a part of my outer primary forever.

Take a very careful look at your chain tensioner also, both for wear and a few have been damaged by shock loads, the lower bar has gotten bent so it can't tension correctly after being damaged.

The Baker Attitude will take away all of those over tension fears. I am glad I included it in my SE Compensator change out.
