Help can't find torque specs
I have lost my FSM on my computer. I need to know what the original torque specs are for my heads on my v6 95 3.0. I understand the 90 degree plus additions 90'degree pat for a ending total of 180 degrees past specs. But what are the initial specs before the whole 180 degree?
Thanks guys

Here's the whole FSM if you need it. http://personal.utulsa.edu/~nathan-buchanan/93fsm/

Well...it's not required per the FSM. But if you can afford them it's not a "bad" idea to use new head bolts.
I never have. I've reused the stock head bolts on mine twice now with no issues in ~11,000 miles since the first time. Heads were only off after the first time to fix a cracked piston. Not to replace the head gaskets only.

Well I already got all new head bolts anyway. I have been preparing for this head gasket to blow and it wasn't until my water pump draped out that the heat must have finished them off. I had already bought an entire upper engine. Heads intake plenum and Downey headers. They have all been port matched perfectly and are ready to go in. The amount of aluminum I shaved away was incredible. I tried saving as much as I could. It is 1 and 1/4 cups worth in my measuring bowl. And that's just the part I could save. The machine shop complimented me on how well done it was. I explained that I was a surgical assistant compared to suturing arteries back together this was easy. My computer draped out on me so I've been trying to use my iPhone to get my info and it's a nightmare. Anyway. I'm excited to see how she responds to pure clean injectors withe carbon free intake and unrestricted exhaust.

After stories from talking to Ted *engnbldr*, I will not reuse factory TTY bolts myself. I know what the manual says (or, rather, doesn't say), but still......
