Head and cam housing torque sequence

I just realized that I torqued my heads down first and then torqued the cam housing to them after instead of in the reverse. The cams spin freely no binding and every thing seems ok. Should I just leave it as is or start over.

That's how I do it (heads first). Works fine. I put the cam carrier on top of the heads to keep the head-to-cam-carrier studs lined up. I torque the heads down, pull the cam carrier off and then put a straight edge across the tops of the heads to make sure everything is square.
