just a quick question , i am about to have new shells and uprated bolts fitted , the thing is i have seen a lot of posts asking what tourqe setting they have?? so i take it there diff from standard. does it not say on the packet or what? also the crank isnt bein reground as this engine is just temp while the other 1 is being repaired, will i need to run them in , or can i just drive as normal? cheers gary

 

If ARP do not give alternative torque they must be the same.
I would just take it easy for a few miles(500ish) without letting the engine labour at all.

hi tabetha , i havent bought them yet so i dont no if it states on the pack, i have seen quite a few posts that wat to no what the tourqe settings are , do you think that the 500 miles of easy drivein will be ok with current set up , or should i turn boost down? cheers for the reply, gary

 

Garyrs,

The ARP con rod bolt i bought had fitting instructions supplied with them.
You apply the grease and work through a tightening/loosening sequence

Nice and easy to follow.

cheers mart, its goin to the engineers any way but he useally does standanrd stuff so just wanted to chek , gary

 

500 miles plenty as it is just a shell change, would not even bother to change the oil until regular interval.
