It's not a case of whatever mate.... That leads to possible warped/cracked heads or blown headgaskets...

Start from the inside, cross to diagonal bolts and work your way out. Should have 3 torque settings to tighten up in sequence. Start by placing the bolts, then do them up finger tight then do the sequence with your torque wrench.

Eg:

10 4 2 6 8
7 5 1 3 9

by saying 'whatever' I didn't mean do whatever, I clearly meant, all other similar possible sequences like the one you stated etc.... I don't think there is anyone on this forum that would be dumb enough to think they can do whatever bolts up in stupid sequences.

I dunno, but I was pretty sure you said something similar about head bolts tensions a while back, hence my conclusion......

Edit found it from your build thread:

Was asking how much to tourque it up to, not the sequence.....
