ARP High Performance Series Connecting Rod Bolt Kit - SB Chevy 383 Stroker w/ 350 Rods - Extra Head Clearance - Set of 16
The same heat-treated 8740 chrome moly steel is used to make these rod bolts as ARP's standard High Performance rod bolts. The big difference is in the shank design, with ARP's exclusive (and patented) Wave-Loc technology providing substantial benefits. Because there are fairly wide tolerances in factory bolt holes, the bolt must be able to fit snugly and a knurl is applied. Unfortunately, these knurls cut deep into the bolt material, leaving sharp edges and enormous "stress risers" that promote failure. That's why ARP developed the Wave-Loc design that features symmetrical waves and provides an effective interference fit without creating stress risers in the bolt or the rod.
ARP’s product line contains thousands of part numbers, and has expanded to include virtually every fastener found in an engine and driveline. These range from quality high performance OEM replacement parts to exotic specialty hardware for Formula 1, IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR and NHRA drag racing and marine applications.
Since 1968, ARP is the fastener of champions and the world leader in fastener technology.
