I wound up just tightening them down 'good enough', since you are dealing with soft aluminum and a sealing point there. Overtightening you run the risk of stripping or distorting the metal/rubber o-ring.
I know that's not very helpful, but I could also not find the torque values for this, and I have been totally leak free and my air is ice cold. I also made sure to replace every single seal in the AC system and the desiccant bag. You can get a bag of GM seals for like $15 or less online.

sealed by o ring, just has to be tight enough to crush the o ring. if you are a mechanic you will know when it is tight enough. if not, take to someone who does
