ARP Studs
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
