Default Resealing threads on the head studs

Last night i went thru removing 1 stud at a time and a serious cleaning procedure , remove the stud, clean in laquer thinner, wire wheel the threaded area, reclean with brake cleaner, use a small wire bottle brush with thinner and clean the block side hole, then goop it up with the Loctite 567 , Resealing with a high end loctite 567 thread sealer.. it will seal to 1000 psi in 1 hr - 10,000 psi in 24hrs, good to 450f .. this crap better work it was 75 bucks for a 250ml tube!!!
Tonight i will put water in and pressure test it... I really hope this works!!
