L19 bolts are not necessary for most street applications. L19 must remain well oiled to prevent corrosion, which can lead to failure. ARP 2000 bolts are more than adequate for street/strip applications. Just be sure to use proper lubrication and a rod stretch gauge to set necessary clamping load.

L19 is subject to hydrogen embrittlement. You have to be extremely careful when installing them. ARP 2000 rod bolts are good to 1000+ rwhp. L19s are just added insurance.
