Default ARP Head Stud. Do you use anti-seize?

I didn't know if I should screw the studs in dry, or use anti-seize. I want to make sure I can get them out someday. That little socket head on the end for an allen wrench isn't going to be able to take too much torque if they seize up some. IS seizing a problem in the aluminum block?

I used assembly lube when I did mine. I'm sure anti-seize would be fine as well.

Use the ARP Assembly Lube, don't install dry. Make sure hole in block are dry and clean though first (no coolant).
