Head bolts
Inner hex bolt (front driver head bolt)
First pass 59 ft lb
Second 90 degrees
Final 40 degrees
All other head bolts (standard hex)
59 ft lb
90 degrees
60 degrees
Sequence on the heads..
If you are looking down on the head with the exhaust on the bottom and the intake on the top (picture standing at the fender facing the engine... It is this below
..9 5 1 3 7
10 6 2 4 8
