I think that each bolt gets torqued somewhere in the mid 20 ft/lb range, like 25 or 26 lb/ft (sorry, this is from memory, don't have my Helms in front of me).

You're starting to get into the area of mods that make it almost mandatory to get a Helms manual. If you are planning on any mods that go inside the engine, definitely get a Helms.

remember to tighten from the middle bolts to the outside so there arent any leaks.
