Good afternoon,

Attached is the sequence for tightening the bolts.

Make sure you use only new bolts since they are torque to yield bolts.

Tighten the new cylinder head bolts to 60 Nm (44 lb ft) in the order shown. Use the J 36660-A torque angle meter in order to rotate the cylinder head bolts an additional 95 degrees.

The rockers are the same. New bolts only as they are torque to yields.
