Default LS7 clutch installation - Do I need ARP bolts?

Hey,

Real quick--at the last second, I noticed that a lot of people doing a single-mass LS7 flywheel installation seem to be buying new bolts. Do I need new bolts, and if so, which ones?

Thanks!

Flywheel are torque to yield bolts, or so the rumor is. I would replace them. Pressure plate bolts I think are reusable but why not just do both. It's cheap insurance.

Shoot. This may upset my plans to install the clutch this weekend.

Any idea on the part numbers that I might need?

I would do ARP flywheel bolts, and dont forget a little loctite on them. I wouldnt bother with the pressure plate bolts id just reuse them.

ARP flywheel bolts are part number 330-2802
