As far as letting it sit, if you are using the quick cure stuff I'd let it sit like 30 seconds or so. Apply it, smear it so it's relatively flat on the mating surface of the pan, install, hand tighten bolts, let sit for 15-30 seconds (if you didn't take too long to do the previous steps) then tighten to spec.
