Default 2020 C8 Corvette

Hello my name is Ferdinand Muniz and I have a 2020 Z51 3LT C8 Corvette. I'm about to replace the transmission fluid and both filters (internal & external). I got a copy from GM Service information sheet that stated that the torque for the transmission bolts is 35 lbs the first pass then 93 lbs. I find that the recommended torque is to high do to the thickness of the bolts and material. Does anybody know the right torque for the transmission bolts? My phone number is (580)351-7218 If you would like please give a call. Thank you
