Does anyone have the drive coupling bolt torque specification handy? This is on a 2GM, 1" shaft.

Ft-lbs or N-m is fine.

I'll need to check the alignment now that I've been in the water for a week.

Nothing Special

Nothing special. I just use the table for standard SAE bolts. Look up the bolt diameter and if you cannot see the head markings then just guess the bolt quality.
Remember these bolts only have to keep a 1" dia shaft straight and the torque is not extreme either.
See attached table for SAE bolts - I made a .pdf of the copy in my TABLES folder so I hope you can read it when enlarged.
If you need metric go http://www.engineershandbook.com/Tables/torque1.htm and scroll DOWN
