Torque specs PLEASE!!

Hey guys, Im getting ready to go out to the shop and do some tinkering,I was wondering if someone could please give me the correct torque specs for ...1)Valve body bolts..2)Injector hold down bolts and 3)Rocker arm hold down bolts. When I ordered my valve body from Brian(like back in March) I didnt order it for the DP Tuner(also got back in March),so I spoke with Cale the other day and he sent me the correct Transgo plate,Im also torqueing(spelling)the injectors and rocker arms, and also replacing my EBPV solinoid.Im thinkin its gonna be a good night for some wrenching(nice and cool and sippin homemade hot chocolate)Rambling.......I know...,if someone could please give me the torque specs I would really appreciate it.
Thx...Schlepprock
