Rod bolts can't be reused but it's up to you to decide on stock or aftermarket.

On my brothers 3.0 rebuild we used the factory rod bolts.
If your budget allows then get the ARP or other brand rod bolts. I do believe there's a streach gauge you need as well. I didn't see a need for more then the factory bolts on a street car. Do your homework before you buy your bearings. There's been issues with the rod bearings. As for the head studs I used all steel Porsche studs on his 3.0. |

If I buy from the bird will I be safe? With bearings rings gasket sets etc - no big parts - my wish list is floating at 2 grand (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) |
