which loctite???

Doing reassembly of valve job.

Which loctite should I use on:

head bolts
intake bolts
header bolts
water pump
other bolts in general like A/C brackets and P/S brackets

The guy at the O'Reillys sold me high temp red, but not sure if that's what I should be using or not!

TPIS says I should use silicone on front and rear of intake instead of normal gaskets. Is the red stuff that says for making gaskets, what I should use there?

THANKS,
Craig

PST for anything that goes to water
headers none or antiseze
thread locker for accessory mount bolts, or none

you're confussing, you ask about what to use on bolts then talk about gaskets. red ought to work, i use ultracopper for the china walls.
