    It's in the workshop manual.

    Cylinder head bolts - Engine numbers without
    suffix B: + *
    Bolts 11 to 14 - Outer row 60 Nm .................... 44lbf.ft
    Bolts 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 - Centre row 90 Nm ............. 66lbf.ft
    Bolts 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 - Inner row 90 Nm ............... 66lbf.ft

    Cylinder head bolts - Engine numbers with suffix
    B: + *
    Stage 1 20 Nm .................................. 15lbf.ft
    Stage 2 Then 9
    ..................................
    Stage 3 Further 9
    ..................................

    See also Engine->Overhaul- page 14 for the diagrams.

    Some suggest doing the outer row up to a very low figure to minimise head warping. Later engines don't have those 4 bolts. As yours have 10 bolt heads, you don't have to worry.

    Use the 14 bolt figures but do the outside 4 bolts to 20-25ft/lb
