Hey Blake, I don't think the Main bolts are torque to yield according to Chrysler, they are torque to angle, but don't necessarily hit the yield point. Head bolts are torque to angle as well and not yield, the rod bolts are torque to yield though. That being said, it's pretty cheap insurance to get new bolts, better to err on the side of safety so good advice.
Yeah I’ve heard that as well. I’ve heard both torque to yield and not, so I always err on the side of caution and treat as torque to yield. They look like a chromoly based bolt, but I have no way of verifying. At $25 ish dollars for all bolts, it’s cheap insurance like you said. I’m kind of weird like that. If I cannot find a solid source of information, I assume the worst case scenario 🤷🏻♂️
That 90° is very specific. You need an actual torque angle gauge or a couple companies make digital torque wrenches with the angle feature. I have the snap on version and it's awesome.
I got lucky, a lady was selling a snap on torque angle gauge for 50$ on Craigslist. I will be done with it mid August and will be happy to pass it along
ARP main bolts are hard to come by over the past several months - I tried to buy them with no luck. Last I heard it was October before they might have them again
We are sorry to hear that. It stinks when little things like that drive you crazy. Please let us know how you like the Holley pan, we are really curious about them
I’m swapping my pan for a Milodon mid sump on my 2021 6.4 Hemi. Any idea where I can get main bolts and studs? ARP is sold out until November. Any other manufacturers make good aftermarket bolts?
Will the 05 computer work without a catalytic converter? I'm swapping a hemi into a dakota and didn't want to install cats since its going to be a bracket truck mainly
Would there be enough room, to run in every main cap? Right now arp only has main cap oil studs and not other studs, have a engine waiting on just studs and would like to be able to get it done?
