hi there,

headbolt sequence and torque settings are as follows:-

8 - 6 - 1 - 3 - 9

10-4 - 2 - 5 - 7

STAGE 1: 15Nm

STAGE 2: 30Nm

STAGE 3: 90 Degrees

i dont have any torque settings for the conrod bolts,

not sure what you mean by bottom end steel brace though? got any pics of the part in question?
