Default ARP bolts
im looking at arp rod and main stud bolts total is coming out to 650$ for bolts..... am I choosing something wrong. This is ridiculous 650$ for some damn hardened bolts do the OEM ones even fail?


then head stud bolts are like 400$

You get what you pay for and ARP is the best. I have their stud kit on my car and love them.

was really about to abort my boosted mission, but I called a shop who sells forged ls7 rotating assembly’s. Selling me one for 2550 shipped Callie’s crank and rods with cp pistons rings bearings and arp rod
bolts. That’s a great deal! Capable of 1000 flywheel hp!

There are different quality of parts from all those companies. You should know and research what you are getting and make sure its right for the application.

Compstar cranks have been know to have issues with blowers. Not saying all the time but there are many cases. Don't know much about the durability of the rods.

Running a dragonslayer and ultra billet rods myself. Never had an issue.

I can’t run those wayyyyy out of my budget was looking to spend 3k on the rotating assembly tbh I’m prob just gonna be at 800whp maximum but I do beat my cars when I get a chance on the highway constant 120-150mph everyday

If you guys had 3000 on a rotating assembly including arp bolts what would you pick to
withstand 850whp to be safe
