head bolts are supposed to be 61 lb-ft.

valve cover nuts are supposed to be 7 lb-ft. Be careful with them. I have snapped studs tightening them down. I use a rubber mallet after i tighten them down, and then tighten any that are loose after you give the valve cover a few GENTAL wacks.

was the valve gasket replaced or the head gasket? try a cylinder leak test to see if its your head gasket. you can probably rent the tool at autozone. If the cylinder next to the one that you are testing is letting air out then its your headgasket.
