Ok, I'm swapping a Fox body oil pan on my 460 and I'm not sure how to change the main cap bolt.

I'm a complete noob, so don't assume I know anything... this will need explained real well...

Do I just remove the old bolt, install the new bolt?
How much torque for the new bolt? Does it have to be the exact same torque as the old bolt?
Do I need to oil the bolt? What type of oil?

Do I use a torque wrench to determine the current torque spec? Or just torque to what the book says?
