I know I saw someone talking about putting their block together and asking questions about adhesives and such. can someone send me in the right direction. If not, what do I use when putting the two halfs together? Or do I use anything?



EDIT: I don't have the torque specs or sequence for the block. I only have them for the heads. Can I get a link please. THANKS

I've used Permatex Ultra Grey a few times without issue.

Your question has been answered. Subaru says to use Threebond 1215 sealant for the block halves. Locktite and 3M both have equivalants listed in the chart.

My bad I should have said that I edited the post. I need the torque specs for putting the block together.

Go to this page, download the service manual, and go to page 88.
