We've covered this. There IS a difference depending on whether you installed studs or bolts just as the type of lube makes a difference. If you installed studs and used the supplied moly grease then you've done well and need not worry... Bolts on the other hand you would only torque to 90 if you used motor oil in lieu of a good moly lube. Follow?
