Boil for 90 minutes, adding Whirlfloc and hops per schedule.
start chilling immediately.
Cool the wort quickly to 66F and transfer to fermenter.

Add dry hops once fermentation is nearing completion (i.e. 5 points from final gravity) and raise the temperature to 70-72F.
Dry hop for 3 days while fermentation finishes.
