i would not trust anything I found on the net or anything I was told. You have no idea if ARP revised something after info was posted. Write ARP and give them part numbers, let them tell you the proper specs. Or call summit but the last time I did that we just wait while the summit guy called the manufacturer.

The first step is to identify which bolts you have. Eagle rods are offered with a variety of different bolts. Each of which has a different torque requirement. Proper bolt torque is paramount to rod strength and life. Eagle does not use "off the shelf" ARP bolts. Eagle has ARP custom make bolts to our specifications. DO NOT use torque specs for off-the-shelf ARP bolts. Here is a diagram of some important bolt identifying features.taken from the ARP web site
