Default Best source for bolt torque specs

I need to know the torque specs for the 12 x 85mm caliper bolts. But is there a reference with all the torque specs for a 997.2?

AllDataDIY is a good source and then there is Mitchell's DIY (eautorepair.com) too.

I think it's also listed on the fcp euro youtube brake diy video. The guy goes step by step and I'm sure you can fast forward to where he's putting it back together.

Jake Raby sells a torque spec book.

I think the Raby book is the best source of torque specs for the m96/97 series. It reminds me of the small booklet that Porsche used to sell for their air cooled cars in the eighties, except that the Raby books are picture illustrated so no confusion. It is 99% complete so that is really good to have. The $50 price is fair considering you can't find a Porsche equivalent anywhere.
