Hi Joe,

Thanks for the information.  The expensive rods will not necessarily make you 
go faster, but should add some reliability.  I feel that my old heap is much 
better prepared now than in the early 80's, but I went faster back then; 
probably because I was younger.  

I put in ARP trying to look up your bolts, and got about 100 hits on my Old 
Fart organization.  I assume it stands for Automobile Racing Products (after 
I added the word bolts), where I will look for your bolts.

Did your machinist recommend any torque's and lubricants to use on the 
threads?

Thanks.  Bill Emery
