Default C6 Brake Upgrade from base to Z51

Good Evening,

My project is progressing fairly well... Received my Delco drilled rotors, Delco ceramic pads, required caliper brackets and new caliper bolts.

Disassembled everything today and took the brackets and calipers to be powder coated red.

Have a couple of questions.

1. What are the torque specs for the caliper bracket bolts?
2. What lube/grease is recommended for the caliper pins?
3. What brake fluid is recommended? Cap says Dot3.
4. Ordered new caliper kits and lubricant from Zuckhausen... Any tips on rebuilding the calipers?
5. Where does the anti squeal lube need to be placed on the pads?

Thanks

If I remember correctly, Bracket bolts are 125# and the caliper bolts are 23#.
