Question What is the recommended torque for installing park plugs with anti-seize compound?

I've heard anywhere from 12 ft-lbs to 19 ft-lbs.

i don't know about all manufacturers but NGK claims no anti-seize is required for their plugs because they already have an anti-corrosion coating on them. if you reuse the plug, the coating comes off and you have to apply some anti-seize to the threads.
