Cmyoch,
Yes, alot of people here have had good luck with silicone on the boot's. Use the black, as it is more flexible than say the gray. You can get the carbs real close in sync with the dead cylinder method. There is a sticky on it in the tech section. Most here do that method, and have been very happy with the result's. And I can tell your one to be real finiky about them, so it should be perfect for you. Just be absolutly sure that the spark plug thats disconected is grounded, or you will burn a coil.
