302 intake bolt torque value

[LoneStarTrucker]

I am helping my buddy finish his 302 but don't remember what to torque the intake bolts to. Any help out there? i'm gonna search the rest of the internet, but stopped by here first.

It's 2 steps and the bolts should to be torqued in a criss-cross pattern, 15-17 ft/lbs and then 23-25ft/lbs. The pattern is as follows..

5 1 9 11 3 7
<-- Front of engine
6 4 12 10 2 8
