Default When would you replace your ARP rod bolts??

I've been running the same ARP rod bolts for 4 years now in 3 different motors. At what point would you consider installing new ones or would you just keep using the same ones.

I'm building a 408 with twin 66s and plan to make 1000 if that helps.

YOu can use them several times but in your case I'd get new ones, they did their job time to get new.

I'd probably replace after either having having been reinstalled twice OR if I had to uninstall them again, and I had intentions of serious power gains. (200+)
