you really need to get in contact with thumper because pushrods and lifter aren't apart of your heads and you will want tonew of both. RTV is great (high-temp stuff) just rememberto use a real thin coat oryou can also go with permatex gasket sealant. Just dont put eitheron your head gaskets.

There's the set that I used when I tore apart my motor. Good stuff IMO.

i am also planning a H/C/I swap and am confused about sealants. I heard that sealant should be used on the head bolts that pass through the water jackets, what kind should i use for this?
Also i see many people say to use gaskets between the lower intake and the block and others say just to use black silicone. Which is better?

my walk through i have says to use gaskets with high tac yellow silicones or somthan like that i think... i got a walk through but it doesnt give much info on the types of sealent... here is hte link to the walkthrough tho... its a really good walkthrough http://www.allfordmustangs.com/techa...intakeswap.pdf

the high tack yellow silicone is just to hold the gaskets in place while you bolt it all up, i dont think that is a thread sealant.
