Default Need torque specification help

Just got me throttle body back from my buddy who did a great job of porting it out! I did a search for the torque specs of the throttle body attachment bolts and could only find specs for C5's. I am sure they are probably the same, but want to know for sure. Does anyone know?

I am also looking for torque specs on my header bolts.
