Everyone,

I'm currently drilling out 2 waterpump bolts which are really badly
siezed in my A-series block.  When I'm done, I plan to install studs and
nuts instead of bolts.  Carroll Smith reccomends the use of Loc-Tite on
studs that are installed in a casting.  Makes sense to me, but I also
want to Anti-Sieze these buggers so they don't do this to me again!  What
to do?  Should I just throw the Loc-Tite out for these paticular items?
Will Loc-Tite prevent corrosion?

I know this isn't exactly shop-talk, but it seems like a general question
and I'm not aware of any "engine assembly" lists.

Oh, Chris Kantarjiev, if you are out there, thank you for

it's been handy so far!

Please let me know if there's a more appropriate list.
