I used the 518 (http://www.loctite.com/catalog/product.html?ProductLine=518+++++++++++++++++) stuff because I heard it suceeded 574. I basically think I applied it to thin because I was afraid of it squeezing into the crankcase and cause all kind of havoc in the oil circuit.
From what I learned about 574 one advantage of 518 is that you have longer to assemble the case before it hardening.

Anyway I trust in John Walker and also from looking at the elring (producer of Dirko and Curil) specsheets it seems to be up to the job.
