Just in case anyone sees this in the future, the correct torque spec is as WalleyRacing said.
Three steps tightening procedure:
14ft/lbs
36ft/lbs
49ft/lbs
I personally have never heard of only retightening the middle two bolts, but it definitely makes sense.
I'd also oil just under each head bolt head as well as the threads.
Please for the love of all things good, DO NOT do as others suggested and torque to 52ft/lbs or 73ft/lbs!!!!
The d17 series motor has an aluminum cylinder head and you can and will strip the threads by torquing that much!
If you look at the sources cited by the posters, one is for a v6 Accord and one is a 95 Civic and still isn't right for even that.
Also, any library will have online access to repair manuals. Great reference materials and a free source!
