43. Make sure the dowel pins are in place in the top of the

block.

Check Dowel Pins

44. Place a new head gasket on the block. Align the head

gasket with the dowel pins and make sure the engine
model inscription is facing up.

Install Head Gasket

45. Place the cylinder head on top of the block and the head

gasket. Make sure to align the head with the dowel
pins.

46. Install the cylinder head bolts. Torque the cylinder head

bolts in two or three equal increments using the
sequence shown in the illustrations. Refer to Specifica-
tions for the recommended torque.
