# = I recommend using an anti-seize compound on these fasteners so that you don't have a hard time removing them later on.
With the rest of the fasteners, you really should use some sort of Moly-based assembly grease to get consistent torque readings--if you do it "dry," most of the torque you apply on it will be wasted in the friction between the fastener and its adjacent surface. ARP supplies a great assembly lube and it also comes with their stud and bolt kits. You wouldn't want to waste all of that time and effort just cuz you didn't take the time to torque things down properly, would you? Don't make me come over there and smack you! Use 'em!!!
