Default Oil Pan Torque Sequence ?

Does anyone have the torque sequence for reinstalling an LS-2 oil pan? Since removal and install is such a pain I just want to make sure the sequence is correct. The mating surfaces have been cleaned and inspected, contacted Permatex and have the correct sealer and application procedure and a new GM gasket. All I need now is the sequence for the torque on the 17ea. 10MM pan bolts at 106inch pounds. Thanks

I would start in the middle working out to the sides in a criss cross pattern increasing torque gradually.

Is there a torque sequence in the service manual that can be accessed by link somewhere?

The GM procedure doesn't show a specific sequence, but it appears there are 2 different bolt sizes, with 2 different torque values.

If attachments don't work, PM me with email address & I'll send it out.

One procedure is for "in vehicle" replacement & other is for "out of vehicle" replacement. Looks like a little different info so I included both.
