RE: Question on threadlock
That green Locktite is a sleeve lock compound and handles heat extremely well. Some engine manufacturers use it to hold their bearings in place....
Using any locking compound or JB should be done with the head removed from the engine. You don't want any of that stuff dripping down on the piston and down the cylinder wall. Worst case is you stuff a paper towel in the cylinder and pull the jug as soon as you set the insert.
