ARP Rod Bolt Install - LQ4 Build Segment Six

I decided to run ARP rod bolts on my build. Lots of conflicting information about these bolts, and how you should install. The "safe" way is to get your rods resized, get the correct matching bearings, and install with a stretch gauge. There are several problems with this. First being the cracked rod design of the LS series engines. Check my other video on cracked rods if you dont know what this is... To "resize" these, you can only take .002" off of the ID of the rod. Thats it. You cant machine them like traditional SBC rods. Then you have to get oversized bearings to fit the new bore. Problem for me is, my crank was turned. I was having issues finding bearings that I needed, and besides, I already had bearings. Problem with a stretch gauge is...who has one of those? haha. What I chose to do, is use a torque spec from ARP that they give you when using ARP lube that should give you the proper stretch. In this case, its something like 40-42 ft-lbs. Lube the bolt including under the head, and torque them down. I installed the stock bolts to torque, and then replaced them one at a time. I also cycled to torque several times, which may or may not have been necessary. Time will tell if they dont hold :) Follow Me!! Facebook -   / jegsgarage   Instagram -   / jegsgarage
