SOURCE: Head gasket torque specs
Here you go, I hope this is what you were looking for:
For 1987-94 models, the cylinder head bolts are tightened in 3 progressive steps. Tighten them in the proper sequence as follows:
Step 1: 50-55 ft. lbs. (68-75 Nm)
Step 2: 60-65 ft. lbs. (81-88 Nm)
Step 3: 70-85 ft. lbs. (95-115 Nm)
Let me know if I can assist you with anything else.
SOURCE: i need the torque specs for a ford 300 inline 6
Tighten all bolts to 10 Lbs, then 20 Lbs, then 35 Lbs.
That should be fine for the 6 cylinder flywheel.

call your local parts store-they can get it for you (I know Auto Zone can)

OKAY GET A PIECE OF PAPER I WILL GIVE YOU 2 ROWS OF NUMBERS TO WRITE DOWN. THAT WOULD BE YOUR TORQUE SEQUENCE. OKAY FROM LEFT TO RIGHT WRITE NUMBERS. 11 7 3 2 6 10 14 OK WITH THESE NUMBERS PLACE THEM UNDER FIRST SET OF 7 NUMBERS I GAVE YOU. FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. WRITE NUMBERS 13 9 5 1 4 8 12. NOW THIS IS HEAD BOLTS TORQUE YOU HAVE 3 HEAD BOLTS PASS FIRST PAST TORQUE BOLTS ALL TO 50 - 55 FT LBS FOR SECOND PASS TORQUE ALL BOLTS 60 - 65 THIRD PASS TORQUE ALL BOLTS TO 70 - 85 FT LBS.
Since you didn't say which engine you have, I've pulled torque specs for 3 different engines. Also, since I can't include a diagram showing the relative locations of the numbered head-bolt locations, it would be a good idea for you to purchase a vehicle specific repair guide that will show this info.
Take particular note about the TTY (Torque to Yield) bolts used on 2 of the 3 engines shown. It is said that new head bolts MUST BE USED when head is replaced or re-installed to obtain the proper torque.
B2500 4 Cylinder
Torque sequence: --------- ' 10 6 2 4 8
' front ' ' ' 7 3 1 5 9 ' -----------Step 1: torque in sequence to 51
Ft/Lbs Step 2: torque again in sequence to 51 Ft/Lbs Step 3: final
tighten all bolts an additional 90 to 100 degrees recheck final
torque in sequence *** CAUTION ***engine uses Torque To Yield head
bolts (TTY) that permanently stretch during the initial installation.
New head bolts must be used when cylinder head is replaced or
re-installed to obtain proper torque.
B3000 3.0 6 Cylinder
Torque sequence ---------- ' 6 4 2 8 '
' ' ' 5 1 3 7 ' ---------- Step 1: torque to 59 Ft/Lbs Step 2: loosen
in sequence (1) full turn Step 3: torque to 41 Ft/Lbs Step 4: torque
to 73 Ft/Lbs
B4000 4.0 6 Cylinder
Torque sequence --------- ' 5 1 3 7 ' '
' ' 6 4 2 8 ' --------- Step 1: torque cylinder head bolts in
sequence to 26 Ft/Lbs Step 2: torque cylinder head bolts to 56 Ft/Lbs
Step 3: turn cylinder head bolts in sequence an additional 90-degrees
recheck final torque in sequence *** CAUTION ***engine uses Torque To
Yield head bolts (TTY) that permanently stretch during the initial
installation. New head bolts must be used when cylinder head is
replaced or re-installed to obtain proper torque.
Good luck with this job!
