Head gasket replacement

[JOFO17]

I have a '82 Johnson 200 and plan on changing head gaskets tomorrow. I ordered the manual but it hasn't came in the mail yet. Can anyone send me a link to this procedure just in case my manual doesn't come in today's mail. Mainly I need torque sequence and specs. Does torque sequence matter when removing the heads.?

Torque the head bolts to 18-20 ft/lbs. Torque from the center of the head outward in a circular fashion. Torque the head in increments till you get to the required spec.
