Torque specs

Any one know what the torque specs and sequencing is for head bolts on a 385 fast burn head?

I've called EVERYONE (even googled it) and the only one that gave any info at all was Scoggin-Dickey and they said it was the same as the iron heads - 65 ft/lbs and the same sequence. I just want to corroborate that with someone else.

Thanks in advance.

That's basically true, but the proper torque is going to be specified by your head-bolts. If you use stock bolts, then use the stock torque specs. If ARP, then they should tell you.
