> Scott,  unfortunately,  I found out about the need to loctite after I installed the head.  Now I am waiting of sympthoms.

I wouldn't worry too much about it.  I find it hard to believe that
loctite would stand up under that kind of temperature.  I've never had a
stud back out on me when using no loctite.  The only problem I had was
with the nuts vibrating off the stud, and that is because I didn't use
locking nuts the first time around (the kind with the turned down edge,
NOT nylocks!).

Just my .02
