Studs hand tight after tapping and blowing out trash , I would follow whom ever made the studs torque specs.
Its been a long time since I HAD to do studs on a 6 leaker .

The stock torque and studs require different torque. Those pesky torque to yield head bolts were junk anyway

Yes the stock bolts were crap . I have done a few sets of heads and the studs are different .

HMMM my 7.3 sees 35 psi on junk stock bolts............ But I do have H-11 studs to go on with new worked heads LOL !
