Ok so I'm going to be putting in H11's that I purchased from MAP. I was wonder if people just go off the chilton order when putting them in 1 by 1 or if they do it a different way?

Also, I read up that people torque them 30,60, and 95ftlbs.. Is this accurate?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I usually do 30 - 60 - 80 - 95, but that's just me.

I also say you should do headstuds the right way (i.e. head off & replace gasket).

I know that's the best way but there's tons of people out there that do it one by one and had zero issues. Brad said that he started pushing coolent at 480 on shanes dyno and I want 500 so this is a must. Plus my car is all ready to go minus the head studs and exhaust.

So one by one the chilton way?

I do it the same way as chilton.
