So is thats what i should torque too 28ft-lb+80*?

And yea there arp 2000 bolts. I don't know the size off hand. I'll look at the paperwork again.

no, they should not have the torque angle done, that is for stock rods with stock bolts. you may even want to have your bolts checked for stretch since we don't know how much torque that 80* added to your original torque setting. I may be paranoid but I would hate for you to get it all done and then it come apart on you due to a bad bolt. maybe someone else can chime in as to that.

look on the end of your bolt and click on the eagle rods link I posted and compare, just be careful to read the bolt size not the socket size. I'm pretty sure LD9 is the 5th one down the page.

As i loosen them ill see what torque that 80* degrees put them at. I'd it comes out over 30 ill bring them to the machine shop for stretch inspection.

Hmm.. can someone please confirm the torque specs of the eagle rods?

I'm sure eagle could.

find out the size of the bolts. there are TWO versions of eagle rods available for the LD9. one (the older version) has smaller bolts than the ones that have came out well @!#$ its prolly been over 5 years now but you get the point lol
