Broke a Cylinder Head Bolt!

Hey Guys,

Today I decided to re-torque my head bolts. Long story short, one of the bolts broke as I was torquing it my own fault though, should have stopped. But anyways, does anyone have the pages from a manual, or the torque specs for the valve rockers, cylinder head bolts, etc, etc? I'm going to get/order a new head gasket and OEM bolts on tuesday then R&R what I need to!

Thanks for the help!

I don't want to wait to get studs in right now. It would be over a week to get them and don't want to wait until after the weekend. Next year I'll be getting studs and o-rings done. I've tried locating info on the web but I haven't had any luck. If anyone has the cylinder head specs for everything needed in a head R&R that would be awesome!
