I know everyone says to use molly lube on ARP head studs, but you can also you motor oil if you torque them more, but I'm not sure whitch is the molly lube there's 2 seperate packets of lubircant, but they appear to be different kinds.

Do the studs get the lubricant where it meets the block? Or just where it meets the head? Or both?

Would it be okay to torque the head in pattern like 25,45,65,95 ?

And does anybody know when you're supposed to re-torque the head with the ARP head studs? These are 12mm head studs.
