I put a o-ringed LR stage 1 on my 951 a couple weeks ago with a widefire headgasket and stock headstuds/hardware. I used the same exact torque sequence as in the factory manual. I talked briefly to Dave Lindsey about it and said to do the same (factory torque values and sequence). No problems and over 2k miles on it.

I second that. I have the same set-up and used the same bolt sequence and torque values with a few thousand miles on it. I am also running 15psi.
