Dave,

Straight from my Ford Service CD:

Rod Bearings:

Install connecting rod cap nuts. Tighten nuts using two step method.
Tighten to 30-35 N-m (22-26 lb-ft), then to 45-50 N-m (33-37 lb-ft).

Main Bearings:

Apply a coat of Engine Assembly Lubricant D9AZ-19579-D (ESR-M99C80-A) or
equivalent to bearing cap bolts and tighten in sequence shown. Use
two-step method. Tighten to 46-69 N-m (34-51 lb-ft), then, tighten to
78-88 N-m (58-65 lb-ft).

Tighening sequence found at:
