Just done! Your '91 should have the old style head bolts without washers (like mine). First stage 60 Nm, second stage 80 Nm last stage +90° (+1/4 of turn: use a long bar because it will need a lot of force to add the last 90 degrees). Pay attention to correct tightening order specified on technical shets (You've got with the new head gasket). Cam bearings bolts must be tightened to 25 Nm and cam sprocket bolts to 63 Nm. Pay attention to the bolts securing the cam bearing to head: black ones (with threads all long their lenght) must be mounted towards the center of the head, 'cause they have a notch for oil distribution to cam followers).
Order for head bolts tightening is (from 1 to 10 ):
8 4 1 5 9
7 3 2 6 10
