The only way to be 100% sure is if You had measured them before torq them and written down every bolts length and measure them now and per instructions if any bolt has stretched .001 , replace that bolt meaning the set unless anyone knows where to obtain single ARP fasteners .

That info is wrong:
134-6006
234-6301
If you need kit instructions, to include torque values, all you have to do is go to arp-bolts.com and enter in the PN for your kit and it gives you the instructions. It's very easy and very simple.

So, this is not a simple DIY project then. It involves machine shop labor and new bearings. No wonder so many people have mixed results with this mod.. So by the time you account for the new bolts, machine shop labor, trip expenses to and from the machine shop, new bearings, etc. How much are you saving vs buying new rods that already have ARP bolts included?

It's cheaper than using an aftermarket rod. The cheapest option I know of is a Scat I Beam and they only have a press fit pin if you stay with the stock size .943" pin. With the press fit pin, you're still having to use a machine shop to hang the rods and pistons.
Scat also has the same I Beam rods with a .927" pin, but the pistons are typically more expensive once you go that route.

No, it has to go to a machine shop.
