At Factory Shop Manual tightening torque specs for instance main bearing cap bolt, cylinder head bolt etc are given with using motoroil in the threads.
What should the torque specifications be if ARP moly grease is used in the threads?

I would not use ARP moly grease on non ARP bolts where just regular oil is recommended - especially in blind holes. Your askin for trouble by doing so - IMO.

I agree with Crizila, as well as there have been some major changes in torque specs because of the new lubes that ARP is using. I use CMP lube on just about everything with a known stretch, but I'd almost rather use 30W than the "new" ARP lube.
