can anybody direct me to what arp part# is needed to replace the factory diff cover bolts.i already looked on there site and the only thing listed for something like that is for the chevy 10 and 12 bolt diff covers,otherwise one needs to know the exact size and thread count from the bottom of...
does anybody know what the part# is for arp's diff cover bolts for our irs.i see they sell a 5 pack of stainless steel bolts in 5/16 size with 18 and 20 threads,but it would be helpfull if somebody already knew which one's we need so i would not have to take one of mine out and measure it.
i took a trip down to bowling green today to see if i could improve upon my times from several months ago before the track closes for the season.i was hoping for mid 11's @120+ but anything in the 11's would be ok since my last time there all i could muster was a 12.2.i made three runs here are...

i was hoping for more rwhp but oh well the torque is nice.the temp was 83.76 degrees in the shop and the barometer was sitting at 29.51 in-hg.i managed to lay down 455 rwhp 499 rwtq after a 40 min cooldown from driving 110 miles to them numbers are sae.i really like my a/f ratio it's much better...
i finally have a dyno session setup for this morning to check my power level and a/f since installing the rr2.60 pulley and jlt cai,temp should be around 70 degrees which is only 5 degrees lower than when i dynoed the 457rwhp 488rwtq last fall so it will be a fair comparison.i'am using the same...
anybody going to try the boost cooler that was written up in the june issue of mm&ff??????
i just wonder how effective this would be vs the giggle juice,but from a cost standpoint it looks to be a cheaper alternative.
