head stud torque sequence

does anyone know where i can get the proper torque sequence for installing head studs? When you guys are torquing the studs down to 130 are you using the arp lube or not?

yes use the lube! Also do it in stages. start at 50lbs, then 90lbs then 130.

i am planning on doing it one at a time, the head is staying on. the reason i ask is because the instructions say to use lube and torque to 95 or 125 if you use oil only. So wouldn't 130 with lube be way overtorqued?
