Default Torque spec for connecting rods

I have a 99 5.3 that I'm replacing the connectiong rod bolts with new ARP bolts while not replacing the bearings because look perfect. Anyone know if I torque them to the regular stock specs or something different? Don't know if its different while retaining the original bearings.

Torque them to whatever ARP says in their instructions.
