I just picked up some Torco and some Clevite. What chu guys use?

 

I wanted to ask this question too, for a block build will I need anything more than just ARP assembly lube?

 

I forget what brand, but got it from car quest I think. Little red tube that's real sticky and sweet. Worked for me!

 

I used the redline assembly lube or the black graphite works pretty good for the price

 

lubrimatic...assembly white grease

 

GM assembly lube here

 

Black Graphite...works awesome and is cheap!

 

can you buy arp assembly lube seperate from a set of arp fasteners? I know that my arp headstuds came with some, but where can I get more if I run out?

I think this is what I used. It's the stuff they have at napa.

 

Royal Purple and ARP

 

I've always used Lubriplate assembly grease. I've also used many different types of cam lubes for the cams, who knows what works best.

 

moly is what i use

 

Vagasil b/c my car is a p*ssy

No really - good thread. I was wondering myself.

 

Redline

 

I've used arp on any threads, and torco on bearings, ect.

I just finished my first short block build and used Sta-Lube brand engine assembly lube. Seemed to work great for me. I got it at NAPA for like $2.50 for a 2.75oz tube.

 

sorry to thread jack but this is kinda similar... if my USED sc61 turbo is to sit there for a while.. do i need to put any lube/motor oil in it to prevent the seals from going bad?

 

ARP is moly based too I'm pretty sure, so does this mean I should only use it on bolt threads? What should I use on bearings, etc.?
