They are Arp FP bolts1) By all means, use a thread chaser at least.
2) Clean the threads, blow out with air.
3) You need to adjust Torque Spec when using Lubricants, which will change the torque setting to slightly lower spec.
4) What bolts are you using?
5) Do you have the original packaging, showing bolt dimension & Torque specs?
6) What thread pitch are the bolts?
7) What grade bolts, which determines torque spec?
