head bolts are 100 ft/lbs, start in the middle and work outward. Same goes for any part like an intake or head. The exact pattern doesn't matter.

Work your way from the inside out..and work a top bolt and then a bottom bolt..Like top middle, bottom inside left, next to it top right,next bottom right, next top left, next bottom right,end top left, ECT..

You should do head bolts in steps, Start at 70 lbs/ft, then 90 and then 100.
