In the manual it says to put Molybdenum Disulfide Grease on threads. First what the he** kinda grease is this and is there a alternative type grease or what kinda lube do you guys us on these threads. Is it like a anti-seze type? Thanks Tony

It is Anti-seize, the messy gray shit!  ;)
It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.

It is used as assembly lube. Stop at a good auto parts store and ask for some they should know what it is.

Also apply this on both sides of the washers and nuts if you have ARP bolts. I have seen the aluminum on the head start to crack when torqed under load without useing assembly lube.

I was aware it wasn't a specific brand, and that several company produce it. What I was asking for was who sell/produce that type of grease..I've called several places and they all told me that molybdenum disulfide was an additive in some general purpose grease.. But I wasn't sure it was the thing we were talking about here. Anyway I've done some search on loctite website as I know they make several specialty lubricant/sealer/etc. and found that the moly-50 from loctite would be one of the grease to use. http://tds.loctite.com/tds5/docs/MOLY50-EN.PDF
