Default Torque setting needed and Brake line question

I am replacing my stock brake lines on my '03 Z06 with stainless steal ones. Does anyone know if there are torque settings for the line fittings. I am also putting in speedbleeders, are there torque settings for those as well? Also, just to confirm, do the longer lines go on the rear?
TIA

Bleed screw - 106 in. lbs (that's INCH-pounds)
Caliper guide pin bolt - 23 lb. ft.
Inlet fitting bolt - 30 lb. ft.
Bracket mounting bolt - 125 lb. ft.

All my Goodridge lines were the same length but perhaps the fronts are longer to accomodate steering action.

Default Thanks,

Thanks for the numbers.
My lines are goodrige as well and two of them are ~1" longer.
Just got them from the LAPD GP.
If anyone else knows, chime in.
Thanks,
