Default What thread sealants to use?

Will hopefully be continuing my engine rebuild next week but wanted to make sure I had everything covered.

What various thread sealants did you others use, and on what bolts in particular?


For instance, what type of sealant would you recommend for the head bolts?

Any type of light locktight'ing needed for any bolts?

Sealant on the harmonic balancer bolt?


Thanks guys!

With regards to head bolt lubricants - ARP offers a good product. You can read about it here along with the accompanying article on head gaskets.
