Default ARP Studs

Does anyone know the torque specs for ARP head studs and nuts?

After cleaning the block threads, lube the studs with ARP Assembly Lube and hand spin in until they bottom. As for the nuts, last numbers I got from ARP were 80 lb-ft on the large, 23 lb-ft on the small using their assembly lube.

I would verify with ARP. Didn't you get instructions?

i have the paper out in the garage, but ARP has the specs on their website, also depends on what lube you use
theres 2 diff sets for heads, early and late blocks, cant remember if the specs vary on short and long, same dia-i'll dig for both sheets
ok, i found it
80 using moly lube on the large bolts (short or long), 85 if using 30 wt motor oil, tork in 3 equal steps
the small 8mm bolts, 22 using moly, 28 if 30 wt motor oil
dont forget to lube the washers and underside of the nuts, prevents false torq
