Default AP Caliper, Hardbar T1 kit, Radial bolt torque spec

Hello all, I have searched, and for some reason, I cannot find this spec.

I am looking for the torque spec for the bolt that mounts the caliper to the caliper bracket with the AP Racing T1 front brake kit, for the C5. I purchased this used, and believe it's the Hardbar kit. It's a small allen head.

Thank you in advance.

25 ft pounds on the caliper bolts and 50 on the adaptor to upright M14’s.

Thank you for the specs. With regards to the upright...is that also called the knuckle? The reason that I ask is that the OE value is 125 ft lbs and it's the same fastener. I just want to be sure that I have the correct fastener that you are referring to.

The nuts that hold my Wilwood caliper to the bracket have a torque spec of 47 lb-ft.
