Bottom End bolts
Another question,
Bottom End bolts- Main bearing caps
I appreciate these bolts probably shouldn't be used again but does anyone? If so are you retorque turning the same or to a different value??
Cheers

People re-use them and torque them to the same spec or just a touch more. I do hear
stretch is more important than torque though. I also hear that the main reason rods go
is usually do to the bolts. I do hear you might be able to pick up some ARP bolts but they
will probably set ya back at least a few hundred bucks. Ya may want to listen to someone
with experience though.
