The ARP guys swear by their lube. They claim it dramaticaly improves the accuracy of the bolt torque. So, I took their advice.

actually they tested it on the powerblock TV and it was the only lube that gave the exact same torque specs every time, time and time again after torquing and re torquing the bolts, removing them, and torquing them again. just wanted to make sure i could use it on the head bolts without blowing a hole in the block..

^This, I was wondering too. How much, because I felt that too much and it would be like having liquid in the bolt holes and kaboom. Me cry.
