Head bolt torque is 18 to 20 foot pounds in the following sequence.

9....10

5.....6

1.....2

4.....3

8.....7 (Continue in an ever widening circle pattern)

The water jacket bolts..... just tighten them. There is a standard bolt torque for the 1/4x20 bolts but everyone simply tightens them which works out just fine.
