		A little bit of copper on the threads couldn't hurt I guess, but I wouldn't use anything else. The high temperatures from the engine will melt and destroy any other grease I expect and I wouldn't want to see the results...

I smear a tiny amount of graphite grease on then. The grease carrier will burn off leaving the graphite behind. To be honest there should be any need to use anything.  |
