Does anyone have a photo or PDF copy of the cylinder head tightening sequence they could post here for the 996 3.6 engines?

I think the torque spec is initially bolt up to 15ft lbs and then once round at 60deg turn and then repeat again??

TIA
 
It's a bit more tightening than you were expecting.


Head Bolts.

Tightening specification for cylinder-head screws:
. Initial tightening in accordance with tightening sequence 30 Nm
(22 ftlb.), undo all screws again

. Initial tightening in accordance with tightening sequence 20 Nm
(15 ftlb.)

. Final tightening in accordance with tightening sequence 2 x 70°
torque angle


Then the 4 allen head bolts.

Position and tighten 4 pan-head screws with M6 x 30 captive ~
washers (hexagon socket 10.9, ajf 5) -Items 1 - 4- on the
chain space. Use of a magnetic bit is recommended so that the
screw to be fitted in the slot -Item4- cannot fall into the crankcase
