Default C5 Torque Specs

I looked in the stickies in the General section but all the torque spec links were dead. Does anybody have a good reference for C5 torque specs? Thanks!

Being that that's posted on LS1tech, and some of the options on the page list 5.7L or 3.8L I'm curious if that's for Fbodies not Ybodies. Though tie-rod and such is listed under the rear susp. which makes me think Y... but then there's Torque Arm which is F...

Hmm.

Aha, didn't think about that. I have used that chart for all my engine work, so that would obviously be the same. But the 'spension might be different, though...

The first thing I spotted was "Wheel Nut" 89 lbs. .....I may be wrong but I think the C5 has always been 100 lbs., hasn't it?
