Should be the same as stock. Contact earl, he'll know, or just call AEBS on Monday.

torquing a nut(studs) and torquing a bolt is diffrent. you'll need lees torque on the nut than on the bolt to get the same clampingforce. i'd say about 10% diffrence,but then that's only a rule of thumb......

for anyone needing to know:
AEBS headstuds are to be torqued 10 over the OEM final setting for head bolts.
this info is direct from AEBS.
