    Thanks Tony. Sorry for all of the questions. I appreciate it. I bought this engine in pieces so I am missing some of the hardware.

    What hardware would you use to hang a ZF 220a to a 6B?

    For low temp lube in the marine environment, we prefer Rectorseal #5 for something like this, but common grease would be fine….Antisieze compounds for HIGH temp applications ( above 300F)

    Okay thanks. What would you use for lube when installing the bolts?
