45% overs and ARP's this weekend

[TrentNell]

Nice! Trent Best of luck with everything


i would start stretching the bolts right in the spare block You pulling the motor or leaving it in?

its staying in the truck , just studding it nothing else , figured it would be dumb not too do it being that far tore down already to do the injectors .

it went on a few weeks back !

Hmmmm I must have missed this. LOL I can't keep up. Did you make a thread on it? See any benefits from it??

have not yet had time to really test it but yes i had a thread on drive pressure reduction methods and it is one of the things i am trying I will update the thread when i have more info on the diference . switched from a 14cm cast housing to a 16cm stainless housing . Also the twins in my avatar are a test set from nathan but waiting to get the big charger back in the truck so i can test some more .

Not sure I thought the 625's were the $$ ones , either way i just got the standard studs nothing fancy . let me know if i'm wrong so i can fix the thread name .

Yep, the
625s are the $$$ ones. I think the standard ones are called ARP 2000. Just wasn't sure which ones you got. Have fun with the install. You doing the one at a time method with the engine in the truck?

ARP2000®: An exclusive, hybrid-alloy developed to deliver superior strength and better fatigue properties. While 8740 and ARP2000 share similar characteristics – ARP2000 is capable of achieving clamp loads in the 215,000-220,000 psi range. ARP2000 is used widely in short track and drag racing as an up-grade from 8740 chrome moly in both steel and aluminum rods. Stress corrosion and hydrogen embrittlement are typically not a problem, providing care is taken during installation.

CUSTOM AGE 625 PLUS®: This newly formulated super-alloy demonstrates superior fatigue cycle life, tensile strength and toughness – with complete resistance to atmospheric corrosion and oxidation. ARP is the first to develop manufacturing and testing processes for fasteners with Custom Age 625+. Best of all it is less expensive and expected to soon replace MP-35 as the material of choice in the high strength, super-alloy field. Typical tensile strength is 260,000 psi.

I dont think i would do it if I was planning on pulling it this winter JMHO

maybe , i got a freind who might have a set of hold downs for me , I dont want to turn it up with dual CP3 at the end of the year and have the head lift and end my attempt :rofl: , plus i will re-use them in my build . i figure with the dual fueler boost will be 70 psi or so .

Yep and even taking the hammer to the firewall

 

[RENODMAX]

I may attend Trent

 

[TIM Z]

Awesome! Hope your new toys work good for ya.

 

[KEVINL]

Head studs+Dual Fuelers=Bent Rods

Good luck

 

[TrentNell]

Head studs+Dual Fuelers=Bent Rods

Good luck

some guys bend them and dont have much to show for it at all , I atleast might have a 10 sec time slip to show for it and maybe some wins in the biggest race of the year racing with the big boys ....................... if the stars align that is . and I think they are already shortend so its enevitable really that they fail .

 

[IdahoRob]

Looks like I have some work to do...

 

[RENODMAX]

I depart Friday morning

:exactly: :cool2:

Sweet man it will be good to have some help !

 

[sweetdiesel]

Just thinking Trent Might want to swap out the cheap rocker brige bolts with some higher grade bolts maybe even the ARP studs

 

[wrcknkrw]

wow thats crazy. i'm looking forward to seeing you run next week. good luck.

That is a good idea the stock bolts are sloppy! How, where can they be had?

 

[LBZ]

Any bolt supply place should be able to hook you up with some. Also ARP sells studs that are the same pitch/size as the stock bolts. Simon may have the p/n. Or you could shoot them a call with the dimensions of your bolt and they may be able to help you out.

 

[Rhall]

FWIW im still running the stock hold downs with no problems.
