Cylinder head bolts are torque-to-yield desing. Always replace with new when removed. Bolt tightening sequence is hard to show, but imagine you are looking at the engine, seeing the 10 bolts. The loosening sequence, for removal, exact opposite of the tightening sequence:
2 - 8 - 10 - 6 - 4
3 - 5 - 9 - 7 - 1
This is the tightening sequence.
9 - 3 - 1 - 5 - 7
8 - 6 - 2 - 4 - 10
step 1 - torque 30 to 44
step 2 - loosen 2 turns
step 3 - torque 44
step 4 - tighten 1/4 turn from step 3
step 5 - tighten 1/4 turn from step 4

You may be able to go to your local library and get a Chilton manual on your particular car. They should have some type of auto repair manual that would have the specs and the correct order to tighten the head bolts. The order to tighten is very important.
