Thank you thats a big help. I will be trying to find a shop manual for sale.
Was there a 25, than 50 and third time 65 like common heads go for new vehicles? Pretty much ending at 65-70 on the third sequence?

It just says to tighten them to 65-70 foot pounds in that sequence.

Never a bad plan to torque to final value in steps or increments
