    The torque settings are different depending on the age of the engine and the type of head bolts which are used

    Attached are two pages from different haynes manuals on the subject. The one that says to turn by a further 90 degrees is for the newer head bolts (torx head) the other is for the star type head bolts (older)




    I hope this attachment appears

    Regards
    Tom
