Leading me to ask... where did you get this information? Did you copy and paste this from somewhere?

I take it this book is not very accurate. I will look at my other book (1000 page manual from Mitsubishi) and hopefully post valid information this time.

I'm back Ok, in one sense this was a trick question. They have since revised the torque numbers for the MLS headgaskets for our cars (that's the trick part) BUT, you gotta ask yourself one question, Nisshoku, "Turn how much further?" Alright, I'll post up the "current" information by the AERA; (with lightweight engine oil on the threads) 1. Center bolts to 25 ft/lbs and corner bolts to 20ft/lbs 2. Center bolts to 50 ft/lbs and corners to 35 ft/lbs 3. Retorque at same (50 ft/lbs and 35 ft/lbs) 4. Finally tighten ALL bolts another 90 degrees
