Topic says it all. I know the block-end needs thread sealer...but I've forgotten if you should use loctite or if you need to use motor oil on the top side.

The best thing to use would be the ARP lube but motor oil will work.

the washer should be sufficent
you arn't going to reduce the turning load much..the threads are the main point of resistance.
