not sure of the torque settings but you may have to replace the bolts for new ones, some of these are designed to stretch and therfore cannot be reused, there are some nauals on this forum as well, guess the answer may be there for you

Unfortunately, I'm away from my manuals.

If I recall properly I think it's 35 ft/lb on the cyl head bolts - but please don't take my word for it.

my honda manual says

cylinder head bolt (9mm) qty 16

45 nm

4.5 kgm or

33 ft-lb



apply molybdenum disulfide oil to the threads and flange surfaces
