Connecting rod nuts

If you replace with the ARP slant bolts they are larger. They wont drop in without problems. That is why you need to resize them. Several people have lost engines after switching bolts. I have never had any trouble with DC Bolts.

I have since changed my bolts out with the ARPs. I noticed that while I was pressing them in, on three of the rods, the head of the bolt (only on one side of the rod) left a little bit of a "rub mark" on the rod itself. All of the rods are at the machine shop being resized, balanced and the pistons installed. My crank shaft is being balance also.
