Thread seal

[Spassmacher]

I'm assembling my 327 sbc, and everybody on the Internet seems to have a different opinion on what type of sealant to use in each spot. I'm just bolting on the final stuff (fuel pump, oil pump, oil pan, water pump, intake manifold, etc.). Do any of you guys lend any credit to blue loctite or rtv silicone being used in any of these spots? If it makes a difference I have brand new ARP stainless steel bolts for everything that come with a tension type lock washer. I'm anxious to see what my fellow truck enthusiasts think about this mini-controversy.
