From my gregorys manual so try and make sense of this.

Instal the cylinder head gasket and then instal the cylinder head, ensuring that it is in positioned correctly over the locating dowels.
Instal the cylinder head bolts and tighten them as follows:
a) following the tightening sequence, tighten all the cylinder head bolts, except the two M8 bolts to 29 Nm.
b) In the same sequence, tighten all the cylinder head bolts, except the two M8 to 113 Nm.
c) using the cylinder head bolt loosening sequence, loosen the cylinder head bolts completely.
d) Following the tightening sequence, tighten all of the cylinder head bolts, except the two M8 bolts to 29 Nm.
e) In the same sequence, tighten all the cylinder head bolts, except the two M8 bolts to 118-127 Nm.
f) Tighten the two M8 bolts to 16-21Nm.


****The two M8 bolts are the two short bolts on the drive side of the engine front and rear without the alan key head.
