I'm not quite sure I follow you. The head bolts are supposed to be tightened down in a sequence to apply the correct pressure to seal the head. I realize that this is an aluminum block and stripping is death. I've got a torque angle gauge and a torque wrench on hand for the job.

--edit---
OK, Klaus made your point clearer. I've got wood and a selection of pipe clamps available.

Thanks for the file link BTW. This should be helpful!
