Default Sway Bar Torque

Did the Forum search first but couldn't find what the bolts should be re-torque to after I drop the sway bar to install an aftermarket exhaust.

Anybody have these specs? Thanks in advance.

Bob at Ken Fitchner could tell you or ask your local chevy dealer or find someone with a service manual.
