Replacing head gasket

[naleuer]

I'm about to change out the head gasket in my 02 sx viper. Does anyone have a guide for the torque specs and pattern? I've searched over the site and Google and I can't seem to find anything definite.

Thanks!

Stock or Opticool?

Stock. That looks like it's for stock right?

An Opticool gasket is a better alternative than stock.
