Default Head Gasket on 50 HP 93 Evinrude

It is aluminum, not steel that you are screwing in to. Go with the book.
After running the motor for a while, just retorque the head.

I agree with Bill. If you over torque bolts into aluminum, you are
just asking for big trouble. Been there, done that. It isn't nice when
you pull the threads out of the aluminum.
