ARP Main Studs I am really unsure guys, as this is the first ls1 I have built, do you replace the side bolts for the main caps or reuse? I have no idea if they are torque-to-yield like the main main bolts, which have been replaced with ARP studs (which when I received, I was shorted 5 nuts, so I'm waiting to see if the seller will help me out). Please let me know guys, I'm coming down the back stretch and I want to get it done correctly and need this information.
side bolts Side bolts can be reused. Torque to 18 ft./lbs.

Great, thanks for the info! Trying to work out a deal with the seller to get them replaced, if not, at least I know where I can get some. I'll re-use my side bolts also, just wondered why the kit came with 10 extra washers (already used 1 under each nut) and 10 silver nuts (for the windage tray).
