10  2    8    4    6
  11  11  11  11

Torque 1 to 10 with a torque wrench to 5 -10 Nm

Torque 1 to 10 in sequence to 30 Nm

Tighten 1 to 10 in sequence a further 50 degrees

Torque the number 11 bolts in any sequance to 90 Nm in a single operation

After the engines been run for atlest 20 minuets tighten again as follows
a) tighten bolts 1 to 10 in sequence a further 30 degrees
b) check bolts 11 by backing off an retorque to 90 Nm
