Starting at the center of the head under the valve cover (bolt #1) the torque sequence is: 7 3 1 5 9 8 4 2 6 10 Make sure all bolt threads and threads in the block are clean and lubricated lightly with oil. Pontiac do not need thread sealent since the bolts do not break into the water jackets. Start in the middle of the head and move outward.Torque in three steps first all bolts to 30lbft, then all to 60lbft, finally all bolts to 95lbft. after inital run in recheck the final (95lbft) torque after the engine has cooled.
