Does anyone know if you can reuse these torque to yield Rod bolts that come with them? 68 cuda formula S 588" bb 5sp 70 CUDA CONVERT 500" 5SP (SUBLIME) 70 CUDA CONVERT 500" 5SP (PLUMCRAZY):TOO MUCH HORSEPOWER, IS ALMOST ENOUGH!

Their torque procedure is to insure the bolt is stretched the correct amount. If your in doubt i.e. used rods,450 passes, replace them. That's the only way I've seen an Oliver rod fail is at the bolt. Last edited by fbs63; 07/21/17 01:41 PM.
