Default Flexplate torque bolt setting?

Hello, first post on the forums for me. I recently wrecked my 3rd gen and bent the frame. I purchased a new body and am moving the engine and other parts over. My engine is internally balanced, and the flexplate was originally weighted for my old engine. I bought a new balanced flexplate but it doesn't say how tight to secure it to the engine. Anyone know what the torque setting should be?

Does the engine size matter? I have the 2.8l v6. Just don't want to screw up something.
