Well, based on the responses recieved, I will use some anti-seize compound. However a new question has arisen that needs an answer. Some have mentioned that the studs should be bottomed out in their holes. This is contrary to what I was told previously. Seems like if you bottom the stud, and it then rotates while tightening, that a load will be transfered to the block casting, and this load will increase when the block heats up, increasing the likelihood of developing cracks in the block. Any comments? Regards, Chris Delling |
