The ignition timing is 10-12', firing order is 1-4-2-5-3-6. I'll have to look up the torque, let you know tomorrow.

Here you go....you do it in three steps, 22 ft/lbs then 55 ft/lbs and then wait 5 minutes and turn them another 90'. You need to do them in this order...

8 1 4 6
5 3 2 7

The rocker arm shaft support bolt is 43-50, I think these are the bolts your talking about.
