Replace main bolts

I just removed my girdle and main caps in order to install my balance eliminator kit. I know im supposed to technically replace my main studs, is it 100% necessary ? I have a set of ARP main studs, however i have been told that due to the higher torque oil clearence may change with these studs.

stick w/ the stock oem bolts, youll be fine to reuse them more than once or twice

ok cool. Is it critical that i put the same bolt in the same hole ? I kept them together just in case i had to.

just have people said already, i re-used mine, and i didnt have them in the same location. No problem so far after about 5,000 NA miles, and about 4,000 boosted.
