I have read torque to 35 on the bolts and I have read 50, both with moly lube. Does anyone know for sure ? Mains are at 90 which is 10 below specs from gnttype.org, so going to 50 on Rods is 10 OVER what they recommend on the site. But 35 seems kind of loose. :confused:
 
Open the ARP catalog, slide down to "Torque Specs", look at page 25, pick your bolt, slide right to get the torque (spec'ed with ARP lube).
 
Unfortunately I don't have the bolt number as they were put in many years ago by the previous owner. Just wondered what most torqued to on their APRs.
 
Actually it's 50 with arp moly lube for part number 123-6002. Arp gives all it's rod bolt specs with gray grease. A rod bolt stretch gauge is a more accurate method, but I checked stretch and it way right on the money at 50#'s
