You MUST use NEW headbolts..

1: Torque all to 20Nm
2: Angle tighten all bolts 100degrees +/- 6
3:Wait 3 minutes
4: Slacken bolts 1 & 2, then immediately retighten to 20Nm + 110degrees +/-6
5: Carry out stage 4 for bolts 3,4,5 & 6 then 7,8,9 & 10..

Bolts 1 & 2 are the middle pair..
Bolts 3,4,5 & 6 are the left and right pair from the middle
Bolts 7,8,9 & 10 are the two outer pairs..
