Default Need help with torque specs, Firebird 67 cylinder head bolts

Anyone know the torque specs for the Firebird 67 cylinder head bolts?? Had a blown head gasket which we are replacing but I can't find these specs anywhere

(It's a Firebird 230, line 6, overhead cam, 165 hp)

You're right. The chart says 301-350 & 370-455....all are V-8's.

Your english is just fine. You use it better than a lot of people I know here in the U.S. Welcome to LS1tech!

Check these out. Here are service manuals for the '67 Firebird. Service manuals go into detail on repairing/maintaining the cars. The automobile dealerships use them. I'm sure they'd have the torque specs listed.
