Racing Engines are supposed too be dis-assembled. I do not know of any Professional engine builder that 'relays' on Loctite (of any type) too hold the engine together! That said...the level of abuse and lack of quality in these 'Clone' motors is a whole different 'challenge'! Utilizing good-quality 'studs' where possible in these motors preserves the threads from the endless assembly/dis-assembly of these things and in the end, you will most-likely still have the studs for re-use....w/ new nuts! I use 'blue' Loctite and torque the 8mm studs to 30in/lbs of which appears just enough too keep them affixed in the block when removing the nuts with my impact gun. JMO
