putting the head on and have some ?'s

Just wondering what people have to say for this. I will be putting the head on the shortblock tonight. I will be fastening it with arps. My procedure will be:

1. hand tighten studs into block(no thread lock, no oil, no grease)
2.spray copper on both sides of HG(stock) and drop on block
3.drop head on
4.coat upper thread with engine assembly lube(sticky and red)
5.washer and nut go on
6.torque pattern using chiltons.
7.30,60,100-105f/lbs

I have put heads back on blocks but not on a turbo car before. Theres a lot of pressure and heat on turbo car that just doesnt exist in camrys and the like.
I want comments and criticism, I want to use everyones knowledge.
