connecting rod bolts??

[camarov696]

im replacing my stock bolts with either new oem or was thinking about getting the ARP connecting rod bolts. I just read that the ARP bolts require the rods to be machined to prevent spinning a bearing, is this true? also, does anyone know where i could pick up a set of new oem's? or are they a dealer only part? thanks in advance!

I would just stick with stock unless your doing a major build thats 500hp.

i was thinkin the same thing, im running a gt2 cam with a nice shot of N20, but im not constantly gunna be on the bottle. any idea where i can get a set of stock bolts? reason im asking instead of reusing the originals is because the last bolt on the last rod stripped on me, figures right? lol
