What size is the socket for them? Mine were 7/16, and they were 65ft/lbs. You have to tighten them to spec, and loosen them 4 times, tightening them on the last and leaving them alone.
There should be a little sheet with them in there..

The 7/16" are what comes on their H-beam rods. Whatever you have make sure you use the ARP lube on the rod bolt threads, the friction with regular oil or dry would affect the torque reading. It's best to use the stretch gauge method.

Verdad Gallardo well i TQ them all to 65lbs, waited about 5 mins., lossened them all up, and started TQ them again when one snapped. What do i do now? I tried getting some locally but that didnt work?
