Default Main Bolts
Where is the cheapest place to find the Main Bolts? It is my understanding that they are torque to yeild and cannot be reused. I am in the middle of a rebuild and need the final last parts.

Thanks
Dave

Question. If the main bolts are torque to yeild bolts then why can you reuse them?

I chose not to. $70 for new main bolts is a drop in the bucket compared to the other engine costs and peace of mind as well.
