lube them up, and turn the screws into the block hand tight. Then torque down the bolts in increments.

I usually lube them and install them by hand all the way down, then tighten them down 1/4 turn with an allan wrench.

Do all Bseries ARP head studs have the same torque spec?

Does it matter if its their second use?

Should say on the pink slip in the box. I think its like 70 with the supplied lube or 80 with 10w30 oil.

My AEBS headstuds said to torqe them down to 10lbs with an allen wrench when installing them in the block. ARP could be different though.

do you need to take all of the bolts off or can you replace bolts individually until all are replaced. Trying to not take off the head.
