For the torque, I use what is listed for that size/grade of bolt. Many charts float around on inet. I don't really think a TTY is mandatory for that part, but I may be wrong. Sometimes TTY are used to deal with vibration, movement instead of lock washers or lock nuts.
Edit: ...and yes, I used non-strech bolts and new nuts (high grade)
