Oooops. Hit send accidentally. Here it is in its entirety:
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).
Didn't see any specific mention of order for tightening them.....
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).
