1. The zip ties help hold the insert together. Take your mount off and place an insert on each side and zip then together, reinstall.
2. What kind of studs? stock / APR. You can use motor oil or moly lube, but remeber each has it's own resistance rating and will affect torque readings when installing.
3. I use RTV sealant for the oil pan and VC gaskets, it hardens into a rubber like substance.

I agree with smooth imports on everything but the liquid gasket, use the non harndening. I know thats what smooth meant he just shouldnt have put the word hardens in there.

yeah i didn't mean (hard gasket) i sould have said with it solidfys (sp). Also you do plan on using an actual gasket right? only use the RTV or what ever sealent you choose in the corners of each cam cap ends and on the coners of the oil pan.
