Does the torque sequence on the head make a diffrence?

I have found all the torque specs for my 1968 F100 300 but was wondering if there is a specific sequence to appling the torque to the bolts?
Thanks as always

Broadly speaking, start in the center and alternate toward the ends. Torque about half way to specs and then in ten lb steps
