Anti-Seize on 617 GPs?
Is it OK to use anti-seize on the 617 pencil-point GPs? Regular anti-seize like used for spark plugs (you know, in a GAS car :-)
Thanks. |

That is what the machinist advised me to do for my 606 engine. How can it hurt?

on aluminum heads you have dissimular metals and therefore the galvonic thing.......
But the 617 is Cast iron head and you won't....but can't see how it would harm anything.

Let's see, my can of Anti-Seize is by far my oldest and most trusted tool. I purchased the can of stuff from JC Whitney when I was 14 years old in 1964. That can has been with me and anti-seizing stuff on every car I've owned. I was asking mostly due to the possible grounding issues. When I change them I'll use a smidge, can't hurt I don't think.
