Hummm, you COULD but ive done lots and lots of trans and motor swaps and personally never had a problem. It could make a tough job more difficult in the future if you need to take the bolts back out for some reason. Torque id down nice and tight and you shouldnt need any locktite, i cant give you a specific number to torque too though since over time i can kinda feel out what seems right. Hasnt let me down yet (crosses fingers)
