I'm going to try to rotate my engine on my SS this weekend. I have all the tools I need such as short and deep well sockets both metric and standard and a few others I don't feel like listing! But after studying wiznutz write up on how to rotate I don't see anything about putting it back together and of I would need Loctite and if so which one?

When in doubt, lock tite
Great! It seems pretty easy I just gotta just get in there and do it!! And I'll pick up a tube of blue Loctite tomorrow after work! Thanks fellas!
blue loctite dude, stock up and use it on everything! lol
Hardest part was getting the big clamp off the velocity stack below the air box. The cable tie did not work. I used two 1/4 deep well sockets and two extensions to squeeze the tabs. Worked great but killed an hour figuring it out,lol.
^^^ What he said. :)
man when I rotated my engine it was really intimidating even though I'm mechanically inclined but I use the thread on this form with all the photos and even though it was like a million nuts and bolts I didn't come up one short when I put everything back together so that's a damn good writeup!
^^^^Did what he said as well.
Was piece of cake. This site is great for learning.
Started my rotate to day and it's all going smooth but I can not find the temperature and oxygen sensor plugs? And my TPS is very close to the rear head and I can't get to the bottom bolt. Do I have to take them out or can I just disconnect it?
