Just got off the phone with a good friend that runs a 850HP Hemi. I found that he does the same thing i did, lube both ends of the stud, the washers and the nuts. He said there is nothing wrong with lubing both ends of the studs. I think if the directions said not to lube the block thread part, it would say. I can call ARP to confirm but i don't think there is a reason too. He also said before i put the valve cover back on to recheck the torque once more because they may settle.
