Are Head bolts put in dry?
K302, cub 124.
Are the head bolts put in dry, or do I use latex, or copper never-seize?

I put them in dry. Run a tap in the block and blow out chips first to clean the threads good. You will always get something out of the holes. Most of the time it comes out with the tap, stuck in greasy filth.

I am with Matt, I use a little anti-seize, the gray one. I put them in, run it for 10 min at different speeds, let cool and retorque. after i run it for like an hour or so, sometimes i retorque them again.

This is an excerpt from a text book, the best small engine repair book that I have found, it is used in many small engine repair schools, Community college courses, and highly rated by many certified small engine technicians.
The book is Small Engine Technology by William A. Schuster. From Chapter 8, Engine Assembly Lubricate head bolts with "antiseize" The head bolts should be lubricated not only on the threads, but more importantly on the under-surface of the bolt head. The bolts, when torqued to the proper value, will not loosen because of the oiling, which will keep the fasteners from rusting and seizing in the engine.

I always put some anti-seize on them and if you want to go the cheap and dual use route use milk of magnesia, it works for jet engine in high temp areas like the combustion area and it will work for your head bolts plus you can use it for other ailments too.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
