Why do you advocate using motor oil on the threads? A good moly lube with a high % of moly has a LOT less friction under the very high contact stress of the threads and under-head areas. Less friction means higher preload and less preload scatter. ARP supplies a good moly lube with their bolts for good reason.

You have a lot of Supra knowledge, so I'm curious about the oil reco.
