A10 threadlock

Hi all
Just purchased SS studs and nuts for my A10 SR barrels simple question when fitting these should I use a thread lock on them ? Any pointers most welcome.
Thanks

Don't think you need stud lock for the engine studs. Never used it before on engine barrel studs. Just tighten them finger tight and then a little bit so they are firm. The torque when tightening the head nuts will keep the studs in place. Also threadlock can be a right PITA if you need to remove them if locked in place!!
