rtv, locktite, never sieze, ect
I am currently working on replacing the clutch, fly wheel, rear main seal, oil pan, trans front bearing retainer gasket and seal, and trans to tcase seal So getting ready to reassemble and wondering what I need to pick up at the parts store today. These are pretty basic questions, but I would rather ask and get it right then assume and get it wrong.
Here are some areas that I have questions on what I should use -
Fly Wheel to crank - never seize \ locktite "what color"
Clutch to fly wheel - never seize \ locktite "what color"
Oil Pan - RTV or ??? "what type"
Trans to tcase - RTV "Ultra Grey"
Rear main support to block - Have gasket but do I still use rtv?
Trans front bearing support - Have gasket but do I still use rtv?
Bell housing to block - Locktie? color
anything else or any other tips??

I would go with red locktite, don't never seize and locktite... hoping that's not what you meant by "never seize \ locktite" they would be contradicting eachother. a small bead of rtv on gasketed areas won't hurt. the biggest thing is locktiting the bellhousing bolts. good luck.
