not exactly sure about a 1.4, but most 1.6 and above are 30lbs/ft, +60degrees, +60degrees.
use new bolts for definite,
check these figures though, I've not done a head gasket in 1 1/2 years so can't remember.
good luck
Go buy a work shop manual the initial outlay is well worth the cost but be prepared to have to use a different type of torque measuring method degrees etc oh yes use new bolts when you rebuild the motor as the originals will probably been stretched last time they were torqued up it is usually advisable to replace head bolts when rebuilding a motor at least I do but that's just my way of working but that is your choice its your car !
usally its between 60-100lbs, but i always tighten as tight as i can get it, just in case.
this is a question that can only be answered by someone who either knows for a fact or has the repair manual that covers it. do not rely on this type of question in here. call the dealer they can tell you. if you mess up you can over torque and strip your head bolts then you will have a problem . also there is a sequence on the torque pattern to use. you just cant start tightening bolts as you go. do you understand what i am saying to you.
