If you're diving into a project with your Chevy Corvair, you’ll want to make sure you’ve got the right components to keep everything running smoothly. This ARP Chevy Corvair 6 Cylinder 5/16 Rod Bolt Kit is a solid choice if you're looking for reliability and strength.
Let’s talk about the connecting rods first. These are stock manufacturer pieces, which means they fit right in without any fuss. The cap retention style is through-bolt, so you know it’s going to hold up under pressure. The rod bolt head style is a 'D', and if you’re a bit of a gearhead, you’ll appreciate the 12-point nut style that gives you a better grip when you’re tightening things down. No more worrying about slipping and stripping bolts!
Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty. The fastener yield strength is rated at an impressive 200,000 psi. That’s some serious durability, perfect for those who push their engines to the limit. And with a thread size of 5/16 inches, you’re getting a robust connection that won’t let you down. The connecting rod bolt diameter matches up at 5/16 inches, so everything meshes well together.
One of my favorite features of this kit is the material. We’re talking 8740 chromoly steel here, which is known for its toughness and resilience. It’s a great choice if you’re planning on putting your engine through its paces. Plus, it comes with the nuts included, so you won’t have to make a last-minute trip to the hardware store.
In short, this rod bolt kit is designed for those who really care about their ride. If you want to keep your Chevy Corvair in top shape and ensure it can handle whatever you throw at it, this is a no-brainer. Trust me, you’ll feel the difference when you hit the road.

ARP (Automotive Racing Products) was founded by Gary Holzapfel in 1968 when he noticed his drag-racing friends succumbing to bolt-induced engine failure as a result of poor-quality fasteners. He drew upon his expertise in the aerospace industry to develop a solution, which turned into a successful business nonetheless.
Since its inception, ARP has been engineering and perfecting a wide range of bolts, studs, nuts, and other fasteners for engines, cylinder heads, headers, wheels, and transmissions. Today, ARP remains the undisputed world leader in automotive fasteners. Racing aficionados everywhere know and recognize the ARP brand and can vouch for its quality.
What Makes ARP Bolts So Special?Located in Ventura, California, all ARP processes from raw wire to finished fasteners are conducted in-house, right here in the USA. The company continually improves its processes with strict quality control guidelines and is dedicated to producing products that are second to none. Simply put, ARP Bolts are better than the competition because of their quality materials and advanced processes.
ARP prides itself on using only top-quality materials that are above the usual “aerospace-grade” quality that other manufacturers settle for. For example, while 8740 Chromoly steel has four different grades, ARP only uses the top two, SDF and CHQ. These grades cost twice as much as the lower commercial and aircraft grades, but deliver “zero defect” quality that you can trust each and every time.
ARP Bolts are built to withstand serious racing, possess greater tensile strengths, and can survive higher stress levels than most aircraft fasteners. ARP is dedicated to creating fasteners that boast ultimate strength and durability to ensure they last race after race. Its product lineup ranges from quality high-performance OEM parts to exotic specialty hardware for IndyCar, NASCAR, NHRA drag racing, Formula 1, and even marine applications.
