David, I think you should do those bolts now, if you have the sealant on,and you should have the sealant on before the top is in place, you should go ahead and torque them down now. You don't want that goo to harden and then drive those bolts home.
When it is time to crank it over, do it first by hand without spark plugs. Get a big socket on the crank pulley bold and slowly turn by hand at least four revs. If every thing checks out, put the plugs back in. Do this before you put the serp belt and timing belt cover on, just in case there is a need for an adjustment.
Let us know how it goes.
