Loctite on manifold

[Judge]

Just a quick question guys is it ok to put loctite "thread locker" on the bolts for the rubber manifold should I just put it on with out it

He means are you wanting to put loc tite on the bolt that goes onto the head or manifold to carbi? if so wouldnt wanna put loctite onto the part where the bolt screws onto the head as you will take that off occasionally

no loctite is required for the OKO rubber manifold adapter.
dont over tighten the bolts either it can warp the manifold.
if you think you need it, fit a spring washer under the head of each bolt.

I only ever use loctite on 2 bolts that go to the engine. The 2 bolts in the cam retainer plate.
The threads in the engine will strip out eventually if you use loctite on them.
