What is the main advantage of using ARP Wave-Loc rod bolts?

The ARP Wave-Loc rod bolts offer increased tensile strength over stock bolts, making them more reliable under higher engine loads. The Wave-Loc feature also helps center the bolt in the connecting rod for improved alignment.

Do these rod bolts come with nuts?

This kit includes the rod bolts. It is recommended to check the manufacturer's specifications for compatible nuts or if your original nuts can be reused.

What torque specification should I use for these bolts?

ARP specifies unique torque-to-yield values for their performance rod bolts to maximize their strength. Always refer to the installation instructions provided by ARP for the correct torque specifications for your specific application.

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the bottom end of your Small Block Chevy 350 and want to ensure the connecting rods can handle more power, these ARP Wave-Loc rod bolts are a solid choice. They're designed to be a direct replacement for your stock bolts, but with a significant upgrade in strength and reliability. This is crucial because connecting rod bolts are under immense stress from combustion pressures and the rotating assembly, especially when you're pushing the engine harder than stock.

ARP uses a proprietary heat-treating process and advanced alloy steel for these bolts, giving them a much higher tensile strength than factory bolts. The Wave-Loc design is a unique feature that helps center the bolt in the connecting rod, which can improve alignment and reduce stress risers. This means a more consistent clamping force on your rod bearings and a more durable assembly overall. When installing, it's important to follow ARP's specific torque-to-yield specifications, which are tighter than stock to take full advantage of the bolt's strength.
