If you want you can do it like by starting one bolt on one end and then tightening the other one on the other end. then just go around in order really... just aslong as you don't over torque them.. if you do you can snap the rubber seal

start in the center and work out from there alternating sides-just like the pattern when torquing a head down-applies to everything with multiple bolts(intakes,heads,covers- whatever)
