Outer head bolts go thru water jackets??

It really is a no brainer. Thread sealer is cheap and easy to apply, insures against leaks, acts as a thread protectant similar to anti-seize and won't affect torque readings now or later, like RTV and corrosion/rust will. If you're in a pinch, or on a desert island, don't sweat the small stuff. HeII, you could probably use bailing wire and electrical tape for spark plug wires if you were desperate, but if you're not, then why? If thread sealer is available, use it! It's not like it's any more effort (unless you develop a leak or a frozen bolt because you didn't use it!).

Take care
