has anyone verified that the arp e46 rod bolts are safe to use in an s50?
i was planning a crazy build this year but due to going back to school its going to be pretty mild, arp head studs, arp rod bolts, arp main studs, vac
.114 headgasket, sheet metal intake, tubular exuast manifold and some nitrous. not sure how long the motor will last but well find out

These guys tried to tell me that ARP makes Raceware fastners, and they could only had Raceware to sell.
I called ARP, and they told me he was smoking something.
