Balancer bolt???'s

What do you guys put on your harmonic balancer bolt when installing it,loctite ,sealant antiseize or nothing ?Thanks

You mean the center bolt? Just a dab of oil on the threads is all I've ever done. If you torque it right it won't fall out.

per GM 1986 Caprice, Monte Carlo El Camino Service Manual : GM Service Manual doesn't specify. It does say; Torque to 88-101 Nm or 65-75 Ft Lbs

I use loctite and on the big blocks actually put silicone on the washer to seal it to the balancer in case the oil tries to find its way down the keyway. This is how we built them at the engine shop.
