John, I learned about retorqueing hot quite by accident. When I was rebuilding Huxley's 1500 following the broken piston incident (that's another story), I bought a NOS Stanpart headgasket. When I opened the package a small slip of paper fell out. It contained the retorqueing instructions. After following that pearl of wisdom, I have not had any head gasket problems since.
