Torque specs for Eagle H-Beams?

Sorry, this is one of those "no one in LT1 Tech knows" questions.

They're the "3D ESP" H-beams with standards rod bolts (not L-19). I don't have the sheet that tells you the torque specs.

How many pounds of torque with ARP moly lube? How about with 30wt. oil?

Something more important than torque spec is bolt stretch. You need to contact ARP? and get that stretch factor for those rod bolts.

At the least, you should use lube and torque the bolts down to the spec torque 5 times.

Bolt stretch is .0059-.0063
I would have included that in my earlier post, but assumed most individules aren't able to acurately measure bolt stretch.
