I'm going to guess yes, some of the bolts run through coolant passages on cars, if this is true on your car you should use it.

Welcome to the board,
A question like yours would be better suited for a tech forum in your case LS1 Tech. I'll move it there for you.

Thanks bud.

Consult a shop manual to ensure you do it right...I haven't torn down an ls1 but numerous chev sb's. I use loctite 567 on the bolts..all of them.
