Hey guys just finished a re-ring on on an 89 2.4l and am ready to put this thing back together, what do y'all recommend for a sealant for joining the crankcase to the block? Preferably something that can be found at an autoparts store unless it is something that needs to be ordered.
One more thing I have heard both ways, should I loctite con. rod bolts or not. Thanks
