ARP stud question...

So I got my studs for my cylinder head swap and was wondering about the torque specs. The paper that came with the studs says 96ft.lbs if you are using the ARP moly assembly lube or 122ft.lbs of you use 30wt oil. That is a huge difference in torque and am wondering what fellow ARP stud users have done with these specs given. They are the 12mm studs and it also mentions using a good quality moly lube as opposed to motor oil but would the torque still be 96ft.lbs with that moly lube? Not sure if ARP's moly lube is specially formulated for their studs and using another type might require more torque than just 96ft.lbs. Let me know what you guys think....

Thanks, Joe
