rod bolt questions OK guys, ive got a few questions. First off, does anyone know if ARP does OR did at one time make a "OEM style" replacement rod bolt for the LS1? I bought a shortblock that was supposed to have ARP's in it, but the head looks like a stocker, but the shank looks to be a hair bigger, and the shank has a spiral down it. I didnt know if this was infact an aftermarket rod bolt, or a stocker? These DO NOT look like the rob bolts out of my 2001 motor. Does anyone have a picture of the 2 different style STOCK rod bolts??? Trying to figure this one out.
ARP has been marking the heads for their bolts for quite a while. If it isn't marked, I would guess it isn't ARP. But I don't know that for sure. I will do some checking when I get a chance to see if we have some stock bolts around the shop and see if I can help you out.
