    Important Fitment Information

    • Factory Connecting Rods Only: These bolts are intended for compatible OEM connecting rods. Aftermarket connecting rods from manufacturers such as Eagle, Manley, and Scat may require different rod bolts. Verify compatibility with the rod manufacturer.

    • Non-VTEC B-Series Engines: These bolts are not intended for standard non-VTEC B-Series applications, such as the B18A, B20B, and B20Z, unless fitment is specifically confirmed.

    • Machine Work: Installing upgraded rod bolts in factory connecting rods may require resizing the connecting rod's big end. Consult a qualified machine shop to verify proper sizing and clearances.

    Note: Verify the exact ARP part number and connecting rod application before ordering.
