are the rod bolts on the LSJ re usable or are they torque to yield? im about to start the piston swap and i forgot to order rod bolts. thanks in advance!

 

They are torque to yeild. 18ft lbs + 100*. Does arp make some for this application?

 

you know that when i say torque to yield that means there 1 time use only right.

 

These are quotes from Alldata on R&R cylinder head.

"Remove the cylinder head bolts in sequence and discard."

"Install NEW cylinder head bolts."

So yes they are 1 time use, torque to yield bolts.

 

Yeah, I would imagine they stretch so just replace them while it's all apart. You don't want to spin a bearing and ruin your crank, or worse that one lets go and you have nothing to salvage except your intake manifold (which is usually all you have left after a rod lets go).

 

That is for cylinder head bolts. He's asking about piston rod bolts.

 

Connecting rod bolts are one time use (torque to yield) bolts. Part number I think is 90537293. You'll need 8 of them.

 

Oh....damn, I misread his post. Oh well, yes the rod cap bolts are torque to yield as well.

 

thanks!! i wonder why intense-racing or cobalt performance parts doesnt carry the rod bolts?

 

all I know is I never reuse any bolts in an engine build regardless.... even when I use ARP studs, always buy new.
and ARP doesn't techinally make a rod bolt for us, but there is one that does work, but don't remember the part # off hand

 

I know that torque to yeild means one time use and obviously you do to so I must have misread your Question.

 

The Eagle 2.2 rods come with ARP studs, are those the same ones that are usable in the LSJ rods? There isn't an application listing for either.

 

zombie thread revival, anyone know if there is a listing for the arp 2000 that fit the lsj rods?

 

i have some arp 2000 rod bolts in the Pauter rods i got off Paul, no clue on the PN, i would buy 8 more if i knew

 

bump, still interested in a part number, i know if i sent arp a rod bolt they could custom make them, its just they make so many fasteners i find it hard to believe they don't make something that will fit.
