Default Caliper torque

Install of the Z06 brake package in progress. Anyone have the correct torque spec for the caliper mounting bolts? Thanks.

This may help:

The Corvette C6 service manual page 5-73 & 5-74 states: Tighten the brake caliper guide pin bolt to 23 lb ft. ( front and rear ) This is for the C6, the Z06 could be different. The bracket bolts should be replaced and torqued 125 lb ft.
