If you are just wanting head torque procedure, here you go:
a. Tighten each head bolt to 96-120 in lbs (11-13 Nm)
b. Tighten each head bolt to 13-15 ft-lbs (18-20 Nm)
c. Loosen all head bolts.
d. Tighten each head bolt to 96-120 in lbs (11-13 Nm)
e. Tighten each head bolt to 13-15 ft-lbs (18-20 Nm)
Mark cylinder and head bolt shoulder with a line and
tighten bolts an additional 90 degrees.
Torque sequence for REAR cylinder (when looking down
at the top of the cylinder facing towards the front of
the bike).
1. UPPER bolt on LEFT side
2. LOWER bolt on LEFT side
3. UPPER bolt on RIGHT side
4. LOWER bolt on RIGHT side
Torque sequence for FRONT cylinder (when looking down
at the top of the cylinder facing towards the front of
the bike).
1. LOWER bolt on LEFT side
2. UPPER bolt on LEFT side
3. LOWER bolt on RIGHT side
4. UPPER bolt on RIGHT side

Harley Cylinder Head Bolt Installation
Factory Method
For each cylinder head, start with head bolt numbered one. In increasing number sequence (1-2-3-4), tighten the head bolt in three stages.
1. Tighten each bolt to 7-9 foot pounds of torque.
2, Tighten each bolt to 12-14 foot pounds of torque.
3. Mark each head bolt and head with aligning marks. Tighten each bolt 1/4 turn (90 degrees).
Torque Wrench Method
For each cylinder head, start with head bolt numbered one. In increasing number sequence (1-2-3-4), tighten the head bolt in four stages.
1. Tighten each bolt to 7-9 foot pounds of torque.
2. Tighten each bolt to 12-15 foot pounds of torque.
3, Tighten each bolt to 22-25 foot pounds of torque.
4, Tighten each bolt to 38-42 foot pounds of torque.

Been following this post since we are at a similar spot in top end repair. Put one side back together today. My husband says he feels that these values are too light. Any comments on why they wouldn't be tighter? J

These value's are straight out of the factory service manual. I wouldn't deviate from them. Does he think they should be tighter or less tight?
