Actually Marc, always on the wet side is wrong. no matter what way you install your bulkhead the gasket should always be on the flange side. if you put it on the nut side water can still migrate through the threads. so If you happen to install a bulkhead back wards for extra clearance on the outside of the tank remember the gasket will go on the outside also.
