Default A Arm / Control Arm bushing bolt torque

I replaced my control arm / A-ARM bushings when I replaced my front spring. I have an AIM, and the torque specs, but they seem to vary?

What are the torque specs for the bolts that compress the control arm busings? I am talking about the 8 bolts, 2 per arm that go through the bushings.

I waited until I was done, I was told to do it at normal ride height.

I saved this a while back - it has some good torque data for Corvettes.
It was posted on this forum - not sure who to credit for the info.

Is that all the pages you have? That is pretty sweet.
