What do you set your ARP studs to?

Anything over 80 you start to run the risk of ripping the start out of the block. We have done test some test torques to 90 without an issue but I would not recommend that.

Fyi...
I wonder what classification ARP's lube falls into? Maybe, that's why they recommend 100ft/lb torque specs.
"Torque specifications will vary, depending on the lubricant used. Moly lube offers a more consistent torque reading than various oils. If Moly is used, be sure to follow the torque specs for Moly. If oil is used, follow the specs for oil. The specs will be different! If you lube with oil but tighten to specs listed for moly, you’ll under tighten. If you use moly but follow specs for oil, you’ll overtighten."
Thanks for staring this thread (sarcasm implied). I will certainly lose sleep tonight...
