Ken,
I use Permatex White Teflon, but have also used the #2 with no problems in the past. One thing that I found with studs is that they seem to seal better if you brush a fair amount of whatever sealer you are using into the hole in the block along with putting it on the threads of the stud. I have yet to figure out why, but for some reason compared to bolts, a lot of the sealer seems to get wiped off the stud as you thread it into the hole.

I've used permatex high temp thread sealant and the ARP thread sealant. If you have ARP studs, then get their sealant and follow their torque recommendations.
