You'll want to ensure your gas ports are lined up first. I use Red loc-tite to secure set screw gas blocks. Torque should not be crazy, like maybe 15-20 inch pounds, just enough to be snug. Do you have a dimpled or flattened barrel for the set screws?
When using Loc-tite, make sure it doesn't get inside the gas ports. To remove it, apply heat from a heat gun until you smell the Loc-tite going back to a liquid, and pull the block.
