ARP Rod Bolt Stretch Gauge - Tool Of The Month - June 2009
|
2.With the rod bolts lubricated with the right lube (in this case we used ARP moly lube) and installed into the rod hand-tight, the stretch gauge is adjusted so that there is about .400 inch travel in the gauge once it's positioned into the head of the bolt. It's important to center the points of the gauge into the dimpled portions of the end of the bolts and then zero the gauge. This requires a bit of feel to get the gauge reading accurately because there's enough slop in the dimples for the gauge to move around a bit. View Related Article
