Do you mean clamping force? If so then that is exactly what I was trying to point out, same torque (radial force) but increased clamping force (axial force).
Hadn't thought about the electrical properties of the compound itself though. The one I used is spec'd for spark plug threads so I'll assume it would be ok ( i hope i don't regret this assumption down the line though)
Anyhow I was just trying to help out by documenting my procedure and hadn't even thought about the seemingly trivial application of anti seize. Seems I maybe should add a note in my how-to about it so that someone can make their own decision rather than follow my potentially flawed advice.
