Starting at the centre head bolts working out, in the stages below
1) torque to 25Nm (18 ft lbs)
2) rotate an additional 60 degrees
3) rotate an additional 60 degrees
4) rotate an additional 60 degrees
OK?

Not knocking the above, I'm sure it would work, but interested where it came from, and the theory it is based on
To my understanding:confused::confused::confused:lol stretch bolts are torqued so they go in to yield and then maintain a "constant load" regardless, (as long ans they don't breaklol) so don't see any benefit to running the engine up to temperature, then torquing.
Please feel free to educate my dumb asslol
