Head bolt torque is 30 ft lbs, start at 10 or 15 and work your way up to 30 in increments of 5. Be sure to do this following the correct tightening pattern, which can be found in the service manual.

I do not know the specific specs on oil pan bolt torque.
I found the pan torque around 25 to 30 lbs.

The rod bolts say 280 inch. That converts to about 23 to 24ft lbs if its ok to do that
