The loctite videos on youtube recommend using a hardening primer (7649) before applying the 660. The video indicates it's good to go in an hour with the primer, though I'd probably still go with a 12 hour cure.

This pdf claims that it can cure without the need of air, but the reverse (not curing in the presence of air) isn't mentioned. You should be fine. Primer if you want to make it faster. It seems steel activates it, which is pretty cool, if you ask me.
