I am putting a new headgasket and bolts on a 2001 vtr, What is the correct sequence and torque setting?

Thanks in advance

torque them firstly all to 20nm then a further 240 degrees turn.

i've not done an 8v myself but generally sequence is to start off on a middle bolt and sort of draw a big spiral as you go...


8 - 4 - 1 - 5 - 9
7 - 3 - 2 - 6 - 10


if that makes sense?
