Hi,

 

Need to buy some conrod bolts, are the chev bolts still the only option?  Do I need to buy 16 when I only require 12?  Factory bolts still available?  Any other options these days?  Are the ones listed on eBay a decent price or should I shop elsewhere?

Thanks

Guess I will have to put the four spares aside and then eventually if I end up with another two sets I will have enough of the spares for a forth set. :)

Same as red 308 . Go ARP , cheap enough. Don't forget to resize and there is a lot of weight saving to be had by radius milling the balance pads top and bottom .

Could someone give me the correct part number, some are saying small journal chev bolts will fit (327) others are saying red 308 bolts?  Just don't want to end up with the wrong bolts.

 

Also imperial engines, do you have any photos of the radius milling of the pads available?


Thanks

The link in your first post is correct. 11/32" bolt, ARP 134-6001.
They will fit Holden V8 as above, small block Chev as above and Holden Blue/Black/Starfire rods.

This is confusing, there seems to be a few variations for the Holden V8 as well.

 

205-6001

134-6403

134-6001
