Yes because the torque load is different but can you get away with not doing it probably but better safe than sorry

I would definitely recommend line honing the block with ARP studs.

Swapped from bolts to studs numerous times without problems. I'm very picky and always check my bearing bores with a mic besides spinning the crank after every torque step...

Same here and I've never had any problems here either.
