Cylinder Head Bolt Torque
 
I'm putting the heads on my 95 build now, I have the .030 metal gaskets, should I use the same torque as my HD manual says or should I use another method?

The manual method works fine. I don't use it. I final torque to 42 ft. lbs..

Yup, like said above, same method i use. Use a few drops of oil under the head and on the threads to get an accurate tq reading.
