Default Head Bolt torque

Seems like i'm full of questions this weekend sorry.

Does anyone know what the headbolt torque needs to be when using a Cometic head gasket? Does it differ from standard?

Also i'm looking to use standard head bolts, are these up to the job, the cars running around 380bhp.

Thanks!!

Std head bolts would be fine, not sure on torque for your HG, I'd be using a fibrous gasket anyway, not steel.
