Default rst head bolts *final torque setting*

hi guys. Spent the last 2 weeks pretty much rebuilding my engine. Its a standard 1.6 rs turbo block. Finally got to finishing stages today but came across a glitch.. I torqued the head bolts as stated by haines (26nm and then 55nm) off the top of my head. On the first quarter turn they all became real tight. I still have another quarter turn to go but i'm pretty sure they will snap.

Does anyone know the final torque setting for the finished head bolts so i can check with my torque wrench. Thanks in advance guys.
