Torque on 6.9
Just got my gaskets and am putting the head back on. Only thing is the back 2 bolts can only be reached with a U-Joint. Is this going to affect the torque from the wrench? Does anyone know where I can find the torque pattern and specifications online really don't want to go buy a manual and don't think my public library will have this manual.

Start at the center bolt, just below the rocker cover.
Jump to the next closest bolt in a counter clockwise circle moving out till all bolts are tight.
Four steps to torque bolts, 40, 70, 80 and 80 foot pounds are the torque values.
As long as the universal is close to straight, it should not change the value enough to worry about.

The one i the verry back is at aprety extreme angle not only am I going to be using the universal I will probably be using a 12"+ extention. The other one has just enough stuff in the way to not give the wrench clearance.
