Steve, Check out the site linked below. Go to Torque Specs in the Research section. It has everything except the torque sequence. I just start with the bolts in the center of the head and work outward in a spiral pattern. Torque to about 2 thirds of final value, then add half the difference and torque to that and then on the third pass torque to full value. Example: if the final value is 60 ft/lbs torque to 40 ft/lbs, then go around again torqueing to 50 ft/lbs, then make a third pass going to 60 ft/lbs. Retorque after running up to full temp and cooling down and retorque again after running for a few hours. If any fasteners don't hold torque, replace them.

Good luck,
Phil
