Gasket sealer makes it very hard to remove in the future, I did dry. As for the head studs, I dabbed motor oil on the threads, and before putting the head bolts and washers on, I put oil under them so there is no drag when you torque them.

When installing the head and cam should the gaskets be dry or should a gasket sealer be applied? Should I use anti seize lubricant on the bolts? Is there anything else I should know while putting this back together?

Hi I am not an expert but I thought all torque settings on anything were done with the threads dry unless otherwise stated, I may be wrong.
Allways check that the threads are in good condition and tapped or died to clear rust or dirt from the threads before assembly. This probably does not apply to 2cyl engines but on S engines with domed nuts ensure that the nut actually pulls down on the head and does not bottom.

Hello, There is no oil pressure light. The Honda 600 engine has a roller crankshaft. Just be sure you have a full crankcase of clean oil.= Chuck (mobile) Pleez x cuze enny tie ping or spelin air ores.

Roller bearing cranks do not need oil pressure in the way plain bearing crankshafts... oil mist and splash are adequate in most roller bearing crank engines. If there was "plain bearing" pressure, it would just squirt out between the rollers. The rocker arms and shafts do quite well with splash lubrication
