With clean used bolts you put oil on the threads and bolt head contact point. Then tighten them in sequence to 22 ft lbs. Then an additional 140 degrees in the same sequence.

With clean new bolts you put oil on the threads and bolt head contact point. Then tighten them in sequence to 22 ft lbs. Then an additional 165 degrees in the same sequence.
