Re: torquing sequence (pewter99)
While there is a proper torque spec for every bolt on the car, I generally just make sure all header bolts are "snug" and go from there. Do 2 passes over the bolts to make sure they are all still snug.
If you want to be scientific about it, or maybe just torque one so you can "feel" how tight it should be, the spec is 18 lb/ft.
