Re: (whiteteg95)
It is not that they have to be machined to accept the rod bolts but, anytime you install rod bolts into a rod the big end needs to be resized because the rod bolts being pressed in can cause distortion. Hope that is clear 
I believe they are 8mm rod bolts( I think) Just go to ARP's site.

I just had some pressed into my LS rods about 2 months ago! Many ls/vtec setups use these.
