Installing wheel studs into my 5 lug conversion hubs. It looks like torque values are 94 ft/lb? Could somebody confirm? I am using red Loctite as well so imagine as long as Loctite is on there and stud is snug, I should be ok.

94 lbs is fine, DON'T use locktite, use a torque wrench. Re-check after your first drive.
If your rims have been painted the paint in the nut seats can be an issue, I torque all the nuts then loosen them off and blow out any paint chips with air, re-torque and check them several times over the next few drives.

Edit, re-read your post, studs into hubs, yes red locktite, they don't need any torque IIRC. 94lbs is for the nut (rim to hub) torque.
