Don't go by what a gasket says for head torque specs. The torque is dependent on the bolts and head material. I believe the ARP fasteners come with a piece of paper that tells you the torque settings to use with different head materials and block materials, but I may be wrong. Anyway, if you want to be sure the gaskets are compressed correctly, I don't think the ARP fasteners are going to fail with 10 extra ft. lbs. But, be sure to use thread sealer.
