Hi,

If you look below, I have attached the torque sequence and specifications for the cylinder head. In addition, I included the exhaust manifold as well. Note that when torquing these, it is done in steps, and the final step on the head bolts is based on how many additional degrees the bolt will need to be turned.

I hope this helps. Let us know how things turn out for you or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
