If you're diving into the world of diesel performance, you’ve probably heard of ARP. They’ve been at it since '68, focusing on crafting fasteners that can take a beating. I mean, we’re talking about head studs, main studs, and driveline bolts that are built to withstand some serious torque and pressure. These aren’t your average bolts; they’re designed for the kind of loads that would make lesser fasteners buckle.

What sets these ARP Ford V8 bolts apart? For starters, the installation pre-loads are through the roof. They stretch a good amount during installation, which means they’re going to hold tight under stress. This is crucial if you’re pushing your engine hard or if you’ve made some serious modifications. You want to know that everything is locked down and ready to handle the power you’re putting out.

Now, let’s get into the specs because I know that’s what you’re after:

  • Socket Size: 1/2 inch, 12-point
  • UHL (Under Head Length): 0.950 inches
  • Thread Size: 7/16-20

This particular kit, the 350-2801 ARP Ford V8 with Tilton Flywheel Bolt Kit, is a solid choice if you’re running a Tilton flywheel. It’s all about making sure every piece of your setup works together seamlessly. No one wants to be out on the road, worrying about whether their fasteners are up to the task.

In short, if you’re serious about your build and want to ensure that your fasteners are as tough as your engine, these ARP bolts are a no-brainer. They’ve got the pedigree and the performance to back them up. Get ready to hit the road with confidence!

The Story Behind ARP Bolts

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.
