rod and main torque specs?

Does anyone have the torque specs for the rod and main caps? I have the oil pan off and thought it might be a good time to check a couple bearings.

This is from a 1989 FSM

Main caps
1st- 60 N-m (45 ft-lbs)
2nd- 119 N-m (88 ft-lbs)
3rd- 176 N-m (129 ft-lbs)

Rod caps
1st- 35 N-m (26 ft-lbs)
2nd- 70 N-m (51 ft-lbs)
3rd- 100 N-m (73 ft-lbs)

Like I said this is from a 1989 FSM and the mains go from the center out in a clockwise direction.
