This is what I use, I am not sure if it has everything you are looking for. People might want to book mark it if they want to:

The only ones I've ever torqued to spec are the eccentric bolt, the damper bolt. The others are tightened bt "feel" Use thread locking compound on the thrust plate bolts and eccentric bolt. Some of the water pump bolts need thread sealer too, they are open to the water jacket on the backside.
