ARP main studs...

How many have installed them. Do they have to be retapped for the correct threading? Let me know if they are just a direct swap!! Thanks!

Are you building a race engine or a stock rebuild? Just FYI, my close friend made 727hp at all 4 with a 2.3l, and he uses stock mains. Its been together since Jan. If you do decide to use the ARP's, they will replace the stockers with no modification to the block.

Wow, sounds like power that I want to have !!! I'm not doing a race setup yet, my bare 6 bolt is waiting for the funding and is sitting on my floor awaiting for that day. But I do have a 7 bolt and I just want to strenthen the internals, except the rods and pistons because I heard they can withstand some pounding, and i'm only going EVO B16G for now. So there is no need to retap the threads, just asking for redundancy and clarity!!! Thanks!
