Thanks Chris,
I'll toss a coin as to which way to place the gasket, and I've just checked 20lbsf is 27 Nm/s for my small metric torque wrench.
One think I've discovered is that I cannot fit a low compression head and gasket to my block as it's got oversize inlet valves and the LC gasket just touches the inlet valve and that's before it's compressed. So I'm refitting the HC head with new core plugs.
