Default Deeper pilot bushing

I have a 428 and TL with small and short input shaft I need to use a .16” spacer between trans and 5.5” Lakewood for HTOB clearance so I had to get a deeper pilot bushing, I have read that if the bushing is hanging out of the crank it can work loose so I thought I would red loctite it before driving it in. I received the bushing and it has a .90” deep steel outer band and a .75” deep bronze inner bushing I will be installing it so there is .25” of the bronze bushing hanging out of crank, the steel bushing OD is just a hair larger the the all bronze bushing so it will be tight. I am worried that the steel on steel crank may seize over time now I don’t know if I should use anti seize, loctite or nothing? Any input
