ARP 2342503 Stud Kit

Used this bolt on a 2012 GMC Sierra with a Non-AFM 6.2 liter. The vibration dampener installation kit I rented wasnt the correct size and this bolt got the the dampener installed! Hand turned it until I had 6 threads in the crank then drove it in with the impact gun...flawless ( pulled bolt out after installing and threads were still perfect) . Wouldnt buy any other fastener for this application.

Make sure that you are using black RTV under the head of this bolt and that you use loctite red 242 when installing in your LS motor. Failure to use loctite may cause the bolt to back out, and failure to put rtv on the washer maybe cause oil to seep out. Amazing bolt though, install with confidence.

Nothing but the best, exactly what youd expect from ARP, the price was a little steep for 1 bolt, but you get what you pay for, plus this is reusable unlike the factory damper bolt. Used on my Stock LS3 during a cam swap. 250ft lbs, get a friend and have a flywheel tool or make sure you have a good method of holding the flywheel. A pry bar and holding it myself while torquing was quite difficult :)

This bolt fit beautifully into my LS1. I highly recommend it for anyone who needs to replace the original GM bolt on theirs.

Very nice quality (comes with assembly lube), used on a 5.3l LSX with a AC Delco Balancer. Easy to torque to 235ft lbs with a 1-1/16 12 point socket. Make sure to put high temp RTV on both sides of the ARP washer so it doesnt ever back off. Thanks.

This is a nice bolt. Looks super cool and heavy duty. So far it is staying put.

ARP is top shelf high grade bolts, nuts, and others high strength easterners. Their USA history is second to none. The 12 point socket fit perfect. I will never use cheap parts for items like crankcase bolts. I chased the threads to ease the installation. I used a balance beam torque wrench snug this bolt on a 2000 silverado 2500 4WD. The truck runs fine. I replaced the oil pump, hoses, water pump, front crank seal, oil pressure screen, oil pan gasket, oil pump p/u tube and added a new coolant thermostat. All this was just part of regular maintenance in light of any the oil pan gasket needing to be replaced. I had nothing better to do so I replaced a bunch of other parts.The truck will probably reach 300K miles shortly then it will time for a new vehicle. I will be sad to see my Bessy go away when she hits 300k.

Excellent

it worked perfectly on my ls2 and much better quality than the gm bolt , price is a bit steep but its worth the quality and its reusable.

Descriptions lists the as a student kit, which is more or less why I bought it, but its not. Its a bolt. Even though I wanted a stud instead of a bolt, its ARP... u cant go wrong. Any other brand I wouldve given less stars for not bein as described but come on... its ARP so I know the value and quality is well above great!
