The torque of the studs in the block is not specified; the only
purpose of the torque is to ensure sufficient clamping force, which is
undefined until something is clamped.  So put them in until they stop
(like finger-tight, but make sure they really are in) then put the
head on and get your torque "ranch" warmed up.
