Default Head bolt sealant
Just wanted to double check here that I'm going to need to put some teflon sealant on the head bolts since they go through the jackets. These are also ARP bolts, so the ARP lube is required as well I'm sure.

I'm pretty sure the holes are blind.

Just use the ARP lube. Make sure you clean the holes completely!!!! No sealant is required.

are you talking about the head bolts, or the rocker bolts that go in to the intake runner on ported LS1 heads?
