There is a proper sequence for that, I know the haynes has it, includes what ftlbs to torque to in the intermediate step, if I could find my haynes......

step 0ne 35 to 40 lbs

step two 56 to 60 lbs

yeppers, sounds about right, but there is an actual pattern for the sequence that they should be tightened in....

Front
l----------------l *= valve
l8*4*1*5*9 l
l7*3*2*6*10l
l----------------l

Not too shabby.
