That's what I have in mine right now.

Pegasus auto wanted something crazy like $22 a bolt. I emailed to double check.


I went with burton power..

That is exactly why I was inquiring. Summit has a kit of 8 bolts for $62.31 and that is what I will get. I don't mind a business making money but to be nearly 3 times the price. Thank you.

Or go to your local Catapillar dealer. 62 cents each, and work just as well. If you're interested I've got the part numbers in my workshop.

Yup. 200-6208 is the correct part number. Torque to 55 ft-lbs using the moly paste on the threads.

I had put arp's in my Covrvette and it cost $100. Granted I understand a different market, but not 3 times the price. No waym i confirmed the price with pegasus and ran away haha.

Graham,
Is the $62.00 bolt set from Summit the identical ARP bolt?

Pegasus doesn't list the overall dimensions of their bolt but I found on some other website that this model kit fits. The dimensions (thread length, grip range etc) are the same as the oem bolts. Of course being an ARP the strength is a bunch higher at 220,000 and the non-threaded shank is narrower. The bolts on Pegasus look exactly the same as the kit bolt. It is good to see others have used it as well which brings a bit of piece of mind. Hope this helps.

There are actually 2 different ARP bolts that will work. One is just a little longer then the stock ones. Useful if you need a couple of grams to get an under weight rod up to spec. Or for the pointy end crowd to remove a gram or two from the small end and move it to the big end.

I am on the road right now so don't have access to the part numbers.

Yep. The 200-6207 kit is listed as the same bolt but only 1.5" long.
