No lock tite. No locking tabs. Just clean well, lube and torque to For rod bolts stretch is best. Get a stretch gauge from Speedway in Neb. and stretch to spec. Gauge is only $65.00. Or use a mike to

The ARP web site, which URL I've lost, has a good explanation of how to torque bolts, very much in line with Larry below. A detail is that the torque (in Lbs/Ft, not PSI) to reach a desired stretch c

One thing I've always questioned - the amount of stretch to give a certain amount of preload will vary depending on the length of the bolt being stretched, What you are missing is that stretch is not

That stretch is only an indicator of load was actually my point, although made in a very random fashion. What you're suggesting is that all other things being equal (threads, material, lube, etc) a g

Ok here's the deal on rod bolt stretch. New style rod bolts have a small center depression in both the head of the bolt and the other end of the bolt. The stretch gauge is nothing more than a dial in

Again, as I said in an earlier post, I think the secret is in the mfg's recommended stretch for that bolt in that application. I would guess that those stretch specifications will vary with several f

Gee, I thought all you guys in vintage racing just put your engine together and ran it for 3 or 4 seasons until you got tired of that car and bought another. regards, Murray Taylor

In addition to what Jack said, locking tabs (especially when reused) can break off and you don't want that. Also, Loctite will leave crap in your threads after hardening and the next time you go to i
