Just got my head back and am ready to reinstall. I'm going to replace all head and block studs and nuts. Should I use thread lock on the portion into the block, and if so, what color? Red?
 
No.
 
Install studs finget tight, no tigher, use motor oil on the threads on both ends. Hope this helps.

GeeBee1...

I have read and re-read your tagline
