well here's the deal guys, i got my bearings for my ls/vtec but these robs bearings i have are for my rods with the stock rod bolts in them. my question is since the arp rod bolts need to be torqued to a different spec will that make the bearing clearance smaller and **** up my motor? i know the big end of the rod may have to be resized but i'd like to stay away from that if at all possible. please only respond if you have experience with this, thanks

 

stock bearings are fine..

ARP's will not effect your clearances.

Get your rods notched for gsr bearings, and run gsr bearings.
