Default Quick Head install ?
Long story short, I installed one of my heads and ending up only torquing all of the bolts to 22 ft./lbs and not finishing the rest of the procedure. I should be able to continue where I left off at another time, correct?

As stated previous You will be fine as long as you don't start it... I also would not fill it with any fluids till It tourqued properly.

As per the procedure, the top five bolts should be torqued last. If you loosen them and are using "torque to yield" bolts, they will have to be replaced.
