I have seen it mentioned that there is a pattern to installing the head bolts. My Haynes Manual does not show it. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Brad,
Saw your post on fiatspider.com. No worries man, I talked to a mechanic friend and he set me up with the machine shop he uses. I ordered my gaskets today and hopefully will have this thing back together and running this weekend.
