does any one know if the cyl head re-torque @ 600 mi. is the same as on an 1150 .. 15ft/lbs then 90deg + 90deg and 30ft/lbs on the8mm bolt ???

These are 20nm if you have to loosen them, try to find THEM in the manual or torque chart. I had a heck of a time.:banghead

The head bolts for retorque are 20nm plus 180 degrees.

The T-45 Torx is 40nm

This is slightly different than the initial torque of a new head gasket.
