I think It allows plenty of time for installing parts if the parts are clean and ready for reassembly. It does not need time to "form a skin" like RTV. Nor does it flow like RTV. Japanese manufacturers do offer a similar product to Right Stuff an market it under their own names, such as Honda bond. With all the aluminum used in most import and many "American" engines regular RTV does not form a thick enough seal and when the parts begin to move slightly due to temperature heat cycles, leaks can occur. I will not use anything else.
