I typically use Permatex "PST" (pipe sealant with teflon) to seal the flywheel nut to the flywheel / rear counterweight and Loctite red on the threads.
I've never had the assembly loosen.

He told me how much his impact wrench was rated for and IIRC it was in the 220s. His shop is just down the road from where I work. If his air tools will be enough it'd be an easy process to have the partially assembled engine in the van with the stand. Put it on the stand at his shop. Hit the nut with his impact gun. Test my endplay at his shop. Remove the nut and drive everything over to the garage where the swap is happening. Once the engine is fully assembled I can repeat the process just before install.
