You want to stretch them at 50 ft/lbs one at a time three times each done one at a time. So take that inside bolt that has been torqued to 50 ft/lbs, loosen 1/2 turn, retorque to 50 ft/lbs and repeat twice. After it has been torqued 3 times to 50 ft/lbs, move to the next bolt in crisscross fashion.
1. Crisscross pattern 25ft lb.
2. Crisscross pattern 50ft lb.
3. Loosen and retorque each bolt individually 3 times to 50ft lb and continue to do so in the crisscross pattern.
4. Torque all to 70ft lb.
