red locktite is over kill it requires heat to remove, blue and the proper torque and you will be fine
unless you are talking about the valley side? then I would red locktite them

I think he's built a splash plate to keep hot oil off the underside of the intake. Personally, I'd use red loctite or a little jb weld on the threads if you're never going to be taking it off. :2cents:

Its for oil splash for under the lower intake ( sorry for leaving it out )
My thinking is that from heat and vibrations, the bolts can get loose even with red locktight and come out ? maybe i should just have them tacked to the plate to be sure they stay in place ?

Didn't Renz make them alonggggggggggggg time ago? I think he had a contest for a v-6 application, with a cad drawing, and the winner( me) was suppose to get one.I know they make them for small block Chev's that are held in the lifter valley by spring metal that goes under the heads . Here's a small block one from e-bay, not sure if it could be modded to work on a v-6.:
