RGS Head Nut Torque Sequence

[Rockitdoc]

My shop manual is printed light on Fig 32 and I can't read the sequence for torqueing the head down.  Any help appreciated.  Oh...RGS1000SFC.

I use the sequence shown in reply#2 in the link, start off from finger tight and increase in 5 ft/lbs increments. Works for me.

Thanks. I should have looked closer in my searches.  I found the same postings.  Good thing my manual was faded.  I might have followed the wrong sequence.  Misprint?

So, you agree with Cape and not Piet?

I neither agree or disagree with Cape and Piet. I used the torque sequence mentioned before their posting without any side affects. My major concern was to get the correct torque settings for the cam blocks so that the threads would not pull.
