Thread sealer on wet liners?

I'm in the process of assembling my TR4 engine and the ARP head and rod bolts I bought came with a tube of ARP thread sealer. I was wondering that since the connection between the block and the cylinder liners almost acts like a threaded one, would it be advisable to smear a little of the thread sealer on the lower portion of the liner prior to slipping it into the block? i wouldn't use it at the FO8 gasket, just on the part that slides into the block.
