No, they were talking about the Hemi NASCAR rods used in the old days. They used a 1/2 inch SPS bolt. I used to know Maurice Petty pretty well, who was the engine guy in the day. Maurice hasn't been involved down there for many, many years. He also did Roy Hill's stuff when Roy Hill ran a Pro Stock Duster out of Petty's shop.

I have no clue what the current small block stuff uses........I don't care, either. My interest in NASCAR ended about 1975.
