Torque for rods on O360

At hangar and can't find torque for connecting rods on O360A1A. Does anyone know or can check?

For what it's worth, the Superior O/IO-360 overhaul manual says to lube threads, tighten moderately to check fit, then torque to 480 in-lb.

Lycoming says 40 ft-lbs, with Locktite anti seize, for 75061 bolts.
75060 bolts are tightened until a certain stretch is achieved.

It's a little more complex than implied in the previous posts... In this case the Lycoming document is best...
