Hi Folks,
I have a couple of questions for the FE experts, hope you can help.

#1 - Where and when do you use loctite in engine assembly, and specifically which product (could use a number) do you use.

#2 - I have a sidewinder intake with a badly rusted water inlet, the one next to the thermostat that connects to the water pump with a really short hose. I got the old one knocked out and bought a new one from mansfield mustang. So what is the process for pressing this in? What kind of interference fit am I looking for and is there any kind of sealant used? The new one is steel and measures right around 0.62" The hole in the aluminum intake measures 0.60" which seems like would make for a pretty tight fight, too tight to get it in there I'd guess?

Thanks for any help you can offer,

Chuck Brandt
