head bolt torque question
I'm going to be doing the heads on my LS2 soon and see that the torque sequence is 22 lb/ft, then 90 degree, then 70 degrees - but I wanted to make sure that it's not different for our aluminum blocks compared to the cast iron truck blocks.
And yes, this is for new OEM TTY bolts.

My '06 factory workshop manual says for the 10 stock TTY M11 bolts, do three 3 passes: 1) 22 lb-ft, 2) 90°, 3) 70°. For the 5 M8 bolts on top, just do 22 lb-ft and stop.
