ARP® INTRODUCES DIGITAL ROD BOLT STRETCH GAUGE ■ Applying the proper amount of clamp load to a rod bolt is perhaps the most crucial operation in as- sembling an engine. Too much or too little torque can lead to engine failure. Measuring bolt stretch pro- vides a 100% reliable method of getting the correct clamping load. Industry-leading fastener manufac- turer ARP has taken accuracy to the next level with the introduction of a digital stretch gauge that measures to the ten-thousandth (0.0001”). ARP’s new digital rod bolt stretch gauge has many important features, not the least of which is an easy-to-read digital display. R-Series Intake Manifold Optimized for PowerPort 365 heads on 500- plus c.i.d. engines, the R-Series rectangular port intake uses a high-rise single plane design with high-fl owing extended runners and raised plenum fl oors to signifi cantly increase power and torque in the 3,500-8,000 RPM range. There are also bosses for nitrous nozzles and extra material for custom port work.
