How should increase torque? Couple lbs at a time, or 1 lb at time until stretch is met?

Also once torque and stretch is met. Will all rod bolt be set to that torque or do you have to check all rod bolts as you move along ?

You'll get a feel how much to increase the torque by with practice - but when learning, 2 lb.ft should be o the safe side.

Yes, you should check each bolt, if you have the tool.
