Question about anti-seize for 6.0 turbo install

I'm getting ready to put my turbo back on. The Ford 6.0 Turbo Install says to use hi-temp NICKEL anti-seize. I have Loctite Silver Grade anti-seize but don't know if its ok to use. I called Advanced Auto & he said what I need to use is some kind of ARP Molley something. I don't know what to do since the Ford manual says different. Please advise. Thank you.

If I remember correct, the recommended min is 1800 degrees. I found some Never Seez nickel rated at 2400 degrees. That is if you're referring to the turbo unison ring.

Anything you use is BETTER than what it came with on the factory bolts and that was nothing

Also smear it on the marmon clamp flanges it helps if they can slip-n-slide

I dont know what to put on the unisone ring the higher the temp the better there

I used Locktite Nickel anti-sieze part #51286. Got it from Napa, came in a spray can.

Thanks for tips. I am going to pick up the Loctite 77124?, which is the nickel anti-seize.
