1.4 ft-lb., then
4.3 ft-lb., then
6.7 - 8.7 ft-lb. (I did 102 in-lb. or 8.5 ft-lb.)

I wouldn't recommend doing this without tightening in the proper order. I don't have the picture to post, but it's (ordered from front of engine to back, with "i" meaning "inside" and "o" meaning "outside" of the engine with respect to the centerline):
3o-3i-4o-4i-2o-2i-5o-5i-1o-1i

The tightening procedure is mirrored from one cam to another, but the "o" and "i" nomenclature still holds true.

Hope this helps,
Andy

What order should I do it if I only took off the outside bolts? :confused:
