We did each of those.  Actually we had the mains torqued down to the factory setting of 85 foot-lbs, using the stock bolts.  We tried different combinations of each - and had the same problem each time...final answer we came up with was that they just don't fit right.
 
Thanks much,
Andy

Try chasing the threads with a tap (there might be crap preventing the stud
from going all the way in. Turn the block right side up when you do this to
keep things clean (anything you clean out will fall down and out of the
engine).
You could also check the depth of the hole to see if its physically possible
for that stud to screw all the way in.
If it passes those tests, try it with the cap removed to rule out some kind
of misalignment/binding. You have the arrows on the mains pointing toward
the front of the engine, yes?
