Black, Oil based, Bearing grease.

Because it is designed for high temp and high pressure, which is what is found in your engine.

If you are put your engine back together then use the White, Lithium based grease.That is what it is designed for.We use it when we put our race engines back together and never han a promlem,the bearing grease is just that, for Bearings,not for engine assembly.
