Do ARP rodbolts ...

...disqualify a motor from being "stock bottom end"? It seems there is some confusion on this, but I'd like to know! Thanks for any input.

I could be wrong but I would say that it would be considered modified at this point.

Definitly not allowed...ask SUX2BU, who seems to be rather quiet on here lately.

Forged rods also add security.

True the FORGER rods...Modified bottom end--- thats crucial hard parts/components of the bottom end... you can have stock rod Bolts or Heavy duty ones...noone wpuld know the difference..

Some jsut upgrade like i do in order to spin the motor to 7200 where necessary...whle others have safely done this on the stock bottom end. Many will do this upgrade with high mileage.
