24hrs usually. Dosn't need to cure to be water proof though. The biggest concern is getting the top mounting screws close enough together to apply a nice even pressure across the block top. My last few blocks used with silicon just bearly leaked even with NO sealant. I always test run them with no sealant to see where the majority of the water will come out and then if needed add another screw there.
Lately though I have been using nothing but O-rings. Only way to go if your capable of it.
