and one flat washer (sharp edge toward bolt head)
over each bolt as shown in illustration.
Torque head bolts to 200 inch pounds (22.6 Nm) in
50 inch pound (5.6 Nm) increments. Tighten in numerical
order. Note that head bolts marked 1 and 5 are
1-3/8'’ long (34.925 mm). Other bolts are 1-3/4'’ long
(44.45 mm).
