18 to 20 ft/lbs for the head appears to be the recommended figure (although I tend to a risque 25!) I have not seen a torque figure for the block to crankcase nuts, as they can only be tackled with a ring spanner. As my first boss would have said: "
Do them up until they are perfectly tight." (He never did explain what 'perfectly tight' meant.)
