What fasteners to use on ...

[lowdiesel]

Well I have to do a complete tear down on motor due to an Amsoil BMK-25! while in there I am using A1-H11 head studs. What other fasteners should I use ie. Main caps and rods....?

sure! doesnt hurt! It all comes down to what you wanna spend

I used ARP main studs and A1 Rod Bolts in my new 2.6 motor.

Well the head studs landed me a little extra mula since I paid a great price on em! But the other cashmere I'll check on what did you pay for rod fasteners

Sorry I didn't read completely,,, so does A1 sell main studs ?

Please explain how the amsoil caused whatever problem you have to teardown the engine. I have the same kit and I'm curious.
