Head Bolt Tensions on '96 Corsa 1.4?

Just replacing the Head gasket. Do you know what the head bolt tensions for putting it back together?
Lonnie, June 2004
Starting from the middle bolts and work outwards 25NM +60 degrees +60 degrees +60degrees (alternatively 25nm +90degrees + 90 degrees) often easier to work out without having a angle gauge. Don't forget to replace the bolts, they are torque bolts and they can snap when reused. Spray the with wd40 before fitting them this helps when tightening them. Best of luck...
