Default Anti Seize or lock tite Lubricant for suspension / brakes / crossmember bolts? Worthless?

I have removed every bolt from my EG (extensive build thread in sig ) and getting ready to reinstall everything. I will be replacing a lot of the hardware with new OEM nuts and bolts. I want to do the install correctly and the best possible way. I will torque everything to factory specs and considering a anti seize or lock tite lube. I think the anti seize would be the best route, but not really sure. Does it really work as stated below:

A highly refined blend of aluminum, copper and graphite lubricants. Use during assembly to prevent galling, corrosion and seizing and to assure easier disassembly.



If this stuff really works, is it (anti seize) safe for lug nuts?
I did not have any problems removing the bolts from the car. My father has used anti seize in the past.....

Thanks for any input

Lugnuts to sparkplugs. and it is great on exhaust too. Don't forget O2 sensors also.

I only use loctite on things like adj cam bolts and dizzy rotor screws.
