DO NOT USE GREASE as assembly lube!!!!  I personally killed one engine
cause
I used grease when I put it back together, luckily it was only lawnmower.
You must use something that will easily dissolve as soon as the engine oil
starts to circulate.  White grease or Moly will stay inplace and block oil
flow.  I would use regular 20-50 oil before I use even the thinest coat of
grease.

STP engine treatment could also be called "engine honey" and can be used
but
I would still recommend getting a tube of real assembly / pre lube.  It
will
cost about the same as a can of grease and you will know that your engine
is
safe.
