Buy Tom Wilson's VW rebuild book at Borders or online.

Only time not to use loctight (BTW there are several different colors intended for different things) is if you are useing assembly lube for the proper torque reading.

At the very least, if you have an aftermarket cam, use it on the bolts that hold the gear to the cam, and on the windage tray. The rods are heald on by peening the nut, read more about it in the book.
