THIS IS WHAT I FOUND HOPE IT HELPS:

FOR THE HEADS, TORQUE THE BOLTS THREE TIMES
1ST @ 25 LB/FT
2ND @ 45 LB/FT
3RD AND FINAL @ 65 LB/FT

FOR THE INTAKE:

Install the lower intake manifold bolts. Tighten the bolts in three steps:
Tighten
Tighten the bolts on the first sequence to 8 N·m (71 lb in).
Tighten the bolts on the second sequence to 12 N·m (106 lb in).
Tighten the bolts on the final sequence to 15 N·m (11 lb ft).

I WOULD PERSONALLY TORQUE THEM DOWN, WAIT A BIT AN RECHECK THEM AND RE-TORQUE IF NEEDED.
