SBC OR FORD ARP 2000 ROD BOLT UPGRADE – NOT FOR OUTRIGHT PURCHASE

Do not purchase this item unless you are buying one of our rotating assemblies or short block kits.

This is an upgrade for those that have purchased a rotating assembly, short block kit, or engine from our other listings.

IMPORTANT NOTE!

This is one upgrade that we find to be very valuable. The rod bolts are most likely to fail under hard use, moreso than the rod itself. When a rod bolt fails during high RPM, total engine destruction is usually the result. The ARP-2000 rod bolts are a very good upgrade, in our opinion. We actually have few, if any, problems with the regular ARP-8740 bolts, but those who run hard always upgrade to the ARP-2000 rod bolts. The ARP-2000 rod bolts also torque at a higher number, and this increased clamping force is also a factor in keeping the big end of the rod stable and true to size. The ARP-2000 bolts are installed in the rods and this upgrade is only available with the Competition rod upgrade. 

To be perfectly clear, this ad is NOT for the stand-alone purchase of this item. This is an upgrade only available to customers that have purchased one of our rotating assemblies, short block kits, or engines. 

Do not click the buy it now on this item unless you have a rotating assembly, short block kit, or engine already in your shopping cart.
