Default O2 sensor question

I installed my stage one and deleted the O2 sensors. My question I bought some plugs for the exhaust to replace the sensors and was wondering if I should use locktite on them or just tighten them down the best as I can.
I was under the impression locktite was not to be used on hot items like exhaust but then I read a few posts about welding in plugs so I thought hell locktite is not as permanent as welding. So what is the best bet on this>

Thanks

Jamie

The Power Commander from Fuel Moto bypasses them and allows you to remove them and use plugs or leave them and the wires. I chose to remove them and use plugs.
