ARP rod bolt source?
Following the advice in this forum and Wayne's book, I'm trying to replace the stock rod bolts with the ARP 9 mm bolts. The problem is I can not find anyone with these bolts in stock and ARP says they don't have any and don't know when they will make more??
Does anyone know where I can find a set of these bolts and nuts? Part #ARP-204-6005. I'm looking at the ARP bolts because they are $50 to $60 dollars less expensive then Raceware ($200 vs $260).

It looks like summit racing may have them for $179 - not sure if they are in stock though
or just get Raceware from Pelican! Regards, Andrew M

Pelican has been an excellent source for most of my parts - almost $2000 worth. I'm just trying to save a little money on the rod bolts. Wayne, thanks for the excellent books also!

Try an engine/machine shop, I had my local engine/machine shop order them for me, I think I paid $186 for them.
