usually most auto parts stores will give the specs, or just stop by auto parts and check out the haynes book

Intake is 25 foot pounds, I have always done them by hand without a torque wrench. (can't get the torque wrench on the bolt head easily)

Rocker nut don't have a torque spec, they are supposed to be adjusted.

Heads are 65 foot pounds.
