your repair manual has all the torque specs for not just the head studs..but allso the cam caps..and those are inch..lbs..not footlbs..good luck.

The Service Manual will list the proper torque for those bolts that require it.

If for some reasion you are not able to tighten a bolt to the amount lsted then further repair is required.

The smallest amout of tourque you can use is what is listed in the Service Manual.
