Vent: I keep seeing guys torque head bolts dry on 6.7 Powerstrokes
The manual clearly states to lubricate the threads and the underside of the bolt head with clean engine oil... but I've watched three different techs in my shop just run them up dry this month. That changes the clamping load and risks uneven seating or a future leak. Am I the only one who still follows the factory spec to the letter on this?

Do they not understand how much that messes with the final torque value?
