A builder friend told me to use tite-seal for the AN fittings on my engine block that connects to the various hose end fittings (oil cooler, oil pressure, etc.). Is this the best way to go and if it is would you use the medium or light weight tite-seal? Any other suggestions? Is temperature an issue here as far as the tite-seal is concerned? I want to install some of these fittings before I mount the engine (Thursday). Your help is very much appreciated.

Tite Seal or Liquid Teflon Tape are excellent sealants to be used on the pipe thread end of AN fittings. I like to apply a small amount of NeverSeize to the male threads which the B nut screws onto. This prevents galling of these threads during assembly.

John,
I have been using Tite Seal Light and Medium for over 35 years with excellent results. I have also tried all of the new miracle sealants, however, nothing has ever equaled the sealing and non seizing abilities of Radiator Specialty "Tite-Seal"
