Own much torque on the head bolts
These days the torque specs tend to be supplied with the replacement head gasket.
If stretch bolts are used the bolts might need replacing and only a small initial torque figure will be needed and thereafter the bolts should be tightened by angle. I can't supply the figures but I can provide the procedure if you have any doubts.

The haynes book is not recommended since there are numerous mistakes and they still will not update. One of the biggest is the firing order.
The factory service manual is the only way to go.
Head bolts - 46 - 50.5 lbs (there is an order sequence for the bolts)
Intake & exhuast manifolds- 13.5 - 20 lbs
Flywheel - 41.5 - 47 lbs
Clutch cover - 13.5 - 20 lbs
