Proper bolt and torque sequence for 12v head

Tommorrow I will be putting my head back on and im wondering what the right torque sequence is for Arp studs? Also what order do i go about torquing them down. ie.. start in the middle and work my way out in a circle or what.

You can line torque them. By this I mean one at a time. Start at the front on the right(facing the truck) and work your way back then up and back and then up. Know what I mean? 24x at 96 ft/lbs. I beleive. Don't forget to set your valves when you are done.

Wait a minute. I just saw that you are torquing for the first time. Let me look and see. I can't remember.

starting in the center drivers side is 1st then straight across on passengers side is 2nd then standing on passegers side right beside or left of #2 is the 3rd then straight across on drivers side is 4th then still on drivers side to the left of the 1st one is #5 then straight across on passengers side is 6th then still on passengers side to left of #3 is the 7th then straight across to drivers side is #8 then so on. The cylinder head bolts are torqued to all bolts 66 #s then long bolts 89#s then turn all bolts an additional 90-degrees. THESE ARE STOCK HEAD BOLT SPECS I DON'T KNOW ABOUT ARP BOLTS.
