ARP 2000 Rod Bolts w/ Eagle rods tq spec?
I have the 6.125 eagle rods that came with the ARP 2000 rod bolts, what is the tq spec on them, I cant remember since its been over a year since I put the motor together, only hting i have ofund is 73 ft-lbs but that is for SBC and BBC forged eagle rods.

Aren't they supposed to be stretched, not torqued? Use a torque spec only after they have been stretched initially. For reference, I torqued my Lunati pro-mod rods to 75 ft-lbs because they were stretched before I got them. 1400 miles and they are still intact. I'd contact Eagle and see what they reccomend.
