Default Billet Alum. Girdle LS Question...

I know if i got one of those Billet Aluminum Crank Gridles, I have to get the GSR/Type-R Windage Tray, Oil Pickup, Oil Pan and the Main Bolts. But if I wanted to to the ARP setup. Do I need to source out the GSR Middle main bolts AND the Ls side mains?

Or can I just do all GSR/Type-R Main ARP Bolts?

First thing i want to clear up is UNLESS you are going to be running upwards of 700hp you dont need to do the main studs, and i definately dont reccomend them. if you do get them you will need to get your mains line bored to be sure they are still lined up with the studs. Also you will need to have your mains line bored to make ure they are lined up while you used the girdle as well.

Second the only arp fasteners i reccomend are the rod bolts, and head studs. just be sure you get the rods re-rounded when the bolts are put in.
