Stick all the bolts in and run them down snug. Start at the center bolt and torque it half spec. Then do the same with the rest in a circle from center to the outside. Then torque them to full spec from center to outside in a circle. This is normal procedure if the sequence is not available. You could always google it if you don't trust this old timers suggestion.

SOURCE: FORD 351 W CYLINDER HEAD BOLT TORQUE

Torque is 85 ft/lbs of torque. Tighten the bolts starting in the center of the head and working your way out to the ends. Go very slowly and only tighten slightly each time you move from the center to the outside. You must pull the head down very slowly each time. Here is the sequence, a127595.png

SOURCE: Need Cylinder head bolt torque specs and sequence

  1. Install the cylinder head gasket. Ensure the arrows point towards the front of the engine. The left cylinder head gasket has the letter L stamped next to the arrow.
  2. Notice
  3. This bolt is designed to permanently stretch when tightened. The correct part number fastener must be used to replace this type of fastener. Do not use a bolt that is stronger in this application. If the correct bolt is not used, the parts will not be tightened correctly. The system or the components may be damaged.

  4. Install the cylinder head.
  5. Install new cylinder head bolts. Tighten
    Tighten the cylinder head bolts to 50 N·m (37 lb ft) in sequence.
  6. Use the J 36660-A to rotate each cylinder head bolt 120 degrees in sequence. Use the J 36660-A to rotate the four center cylinder head bolts an additional 30 degrees in sequence. Refer to Notice Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
