Head bolt per square inch?? Explain please ! They are 3/8" diameter if that helps in some way. Which makes them ~ 0.11 sq inch section....... Tightening sequence - start centre of the 5 row and alternate between this and the 4 row nuts, zig zag fashion, working out to each end alternately. Nip them down a little at a time, finish off to 44 ft lbf torque...........Only then do you tighten the 4 smaller nuts securing the rocker shaft pillars - to 25 ft lbf. I think you need a Workshop Manual..........
