GM specifies PermaBond A136. Permabond quit making this product a few years ago, but we were able to get them to produce it again. Be careful about pseudo-products like "Perma-Lok" etc. We provide Permabond to the most well known LT5 engine builders and others.
Loctite 518 was used before Permabond A136 became available.
