Head bolt torque Kohler 17.5 hp

[Bluebird John]

I am planning to replace the head gasket on the John Deere L110 mower with the Kohler 17.5 hp engine. Does anyone know the torque on the head bolts when re-installing them?
Thanks,
John

You need the pattern also.
You may need to take it off with small , 1/4 turns on each bolt to prevent warping on removal.

You need a service manual for the Kohler engine.
Hopefully someone here can provide a link.
