So I put new head bolts in my 7 bolt, and while I was tightening one of the bolts my extension actually twisted and broke. I torqued to 58, loosened completely, torqued to 15, then did two 90 degree turns in the correct tightening sequence. I was just wondering what the end torque is? Like once you do all that what should all the bolts be torqued to
 
Did you use factory head bolts? And how old is your torque wrench? Something went wrong.
I got new topline oem head bolts. The torque wrench is fine. It was just an old extension and was kinda skinny so the end twisted.

I just need to know what the total torque is after all the steps are done
