The only manual I ever found listing torgue for oiled threads was the one for  np435 transmission from Novak Adapters, every other time the torgue is listed without any lubrication.

I use one or two pounds over on the torque anyway,cant be bothered with disturbing half the top end for nothing,i love to tinker but some guys like making work for themselves?just torque it once itll be ok.
