Default 2JZ Freeze Plug sealant?

Im about to install new freeze plugs on the 2JZ and heard people are using red loc-tite and Permatex sealant. For the guys who replaced your freeze plugs, what sealant are you guys using?

Permatex seems to be the most popular choice.

I really like Honda-bond.

It sounds crazy, but its the best goddamn adhesive sealant I've ever used.

At the old shop we would re-assemble everything like that with Honda bond, Vipers To DSMs.

It's a bit more expensive then RTV or Permatex, but super rugged, goes on even, and tough as *****.
