"Grease" was a movie with John Travolta, 30wt motor oil is what is used with stock head bolts and the fact. manual.

different manufacturers call for different kind of lubes when torquing head bolts. ARP gives different torque values if you are using 30wt than if you are using ARP moly lube. Do some reserach and use what the manufaturer calls for
