Default building a mini-me

i'm building a mini me and i'm using a y8 head with zc bottom. the head bolts from the y8 are too short so i used the zc head bolts. i torqued it down to 49ft/lbs i just want to check with other people if that sounds right i got it from the haynes manuel to torque down head bolts on y8's and y7's.
