Pressure recommedation

Gary Fisher Genesis 2. Crank Brothers dropper seat post (not internally routed). I found the valve stem core was leaking and replaced it. Pumped to 100 lb and everything seems to be working well but I reallly would like some confirmation of what the pressure should be. Wouldn't want to overinflate it.
