Loosen in any convenient order.
Tighten (torque) to 62-63 foot lbs in 3 more or less equal steps. Retorque after about 1 hour of running, again after perhaps 10 hours, and again at the end of the driving season or year.
EDITED. For sequence, bottom image below should be the same as your 1100.

It's quite possible that for the two cylinder head nuts between the pair of ignition coils, to get clearance for the wrench head you'll have to use a long extension to raise the wrench head above the coils.
DO NOT surface mill the head unless absolutely necessary!!
Mark the position of the distributor drive shaft slot BEFORE removing (note that the drive slot is slightly off-center!), it can install in 4 different positions but only 1 is correct. Just to be safe, also note the position of the distributor rotor and don't rotate the engine until the distributor is remounted.
