List,
  I'm doing some plumbing on the motorcycle and was wondering what is the
best type (material) of fittings to use to avoid galling.  I hope that made
sense.  The motorcycle case is aluminum, threaded with 3/8 NPT.  Should I
use aluminum fittings, brass, steel or stainless?  What is the best thread
sealant?  Should I use anti-seize instead of sealant?  Just looking for your
thoughts and experiences.

Regards, Tom
