I have a stage II street car that requires constant bolt re-tightening. Any one have luck with sylicone or anything to help this? Specifically the bolts most affected are: oil pan, valve cover, and header.

Thanks for your time
 
I had solid motor mounts on mine, and yes, I had issues with bolts coming loose frequently. I typically would use Loc-tite. My main problem spots were header and torque converter bolts. I would invest in locking header bolts.
 
you can buy a jig to drill the heads of any 6 pt bolt you want, i think mark williams sells one too, then you can drill and saftey wire all the bolts on your car, and if at all possible use a nylock nut, on the aircraft there is usually triple redundancy, in the form of a friction nut, spring lock pawl and saftey wire/cotter pin, and we never have a bolt shake loose, and if a chinook cannot chake it loose, nothing can.
