3) Anti-seize compound on the threads!!

I spray-painted the whole thing from bare metal/engine primer (following
this poll), so I guess that's not one of my problems, but good call on mentioning it. I would prefer to assume that the viewer is adding a brand-new head, like a Snyder 6:1 head – that way I don't have to go talk about having the head bead-blasted, painted, and decked.
Anti-seize: Fallucca doesn't use it (he uses RTV), but if I depart from his standard it'll be here. We'll see. Nobody explain to me about anti-seize, I have read all the posts.
