Question Rod bolt question

Well I got my pistons all in tonight now that I got the right rod bearings. I also put new rod bolts in as well.

My question only pertains to one piston. I torqued the rod bolts on the #1 cyl to 14.5# + 90* ... I then realized that I bought new nuts so I immediately undid the old nuts and put the new nuts back on. Tightened to the 14.5# + 90* spec.

Since they are brand spankin' new rod bolts, new nuts and of course never run. Will I be ok on this cylinder????

*** EDIT The book said if you over-tighten past 100*, to loosen it completely and retighten. So i'm guessing they can be reused.
