Default Need b16 head torque specs. Please.

I have a 92 civic with a b16 and a blown head gasket. Can someone please post the torque specs for the head bolts. I have searched and all I could find was people telling other people to buy "the manual". I don't have time, as I live in Japan, and need to do this now because it is my daily driver. Thanks for the help.

I have specs for a GSR, I'm pretty sure it will be the same as a B16.

Assuming you know the torque sequence:
63ft-lbs for the cylinder head bolts. Besides the order that you must tighten them in, also make sure you do it in two steps. First torque them in sequence to 22ft-lbs. Then again in sequence for the final 63ft-lbs.

Note that this isn't perfect for used OEM head bolts as they stretch. These specs are for OEM NEW head bolts. Also, these specs are not the same for aftermarket head studs such as the ARP ones.
