Anyone else having doubts about 1104?

I'm thinking about switching back to using 574 for case halves and cam towers to heads.

The 1104 just seems to go off so quickly. I applied it to both case halves, but by the time I got to putting them together, (maybe 5 minutes) they were 'dry to touch'.. When clamped together, there was only a little squeeze out at certain areas, likely from where it was a little thicker. The sealant that did squeeze out, was soft and pliable for some time.. which leads me to think that my join 'should' be ok and leak free. But I will only find out after it's together and running..

Or should I just tear down the short block, clean it up, and use 574?

574 seems so user friendly in comparison...
