Sealant, Grease, Antiseize thread

[siteunseen]

I just poured motor oil over the chain before the first start up. The tensioner has it's own oil supply hole on front of the block and as long as you prime the oiling before cranking it should be fine.

 Mostly just some of the products are different, the applications are very similar,

Permatex Aviation Form a Gasket or  Three Bond 1184

Moly 60/Honda 60 spline grease

Permatex Ultra Black sealant

RedLine Assembly Lube Paste, doesn't drip off, you can put the engine in storage for 10 yrs and it is still ready for start up.

Molly Slip Copaslip, copper based anti seize

I use what most of the people use up there, just wanted to add;

 

Permatex Anti-Sieze.

Dow-Corning Telescopic Grease for brake caliper // pad parts

Started using the DCTG after spending time restoring Honda SOHC4 brake calipers.

Gamma did some interesting research on the grease, and how it reacted to temperature in that thread. One tube lasts a long time.

Just a word of caution for those new to assembling a cylinder head. From my engine shop guy. DO NOT use any sort of assembly

lube on your valve stems. This can definitely cause a valve to stick.

What? Does not compute, how can lubricant cause sticking?

 a search turned up that some "assembly" lubes may gum up (to thick additives for such a tiny area are not good) for the very small amount of lube that is in the valve stem/valve guide contact. Only a tiny bit of motor oil is needed for normal lubrication. consensus was regular motor oil is fine for assembly lube of the valve stem/valve guide.
