After reading the Hi-tech article on the rebuild I had my Builder read it. Well, that got him going through all the clearences. Every thing is going according to the article just fine until he get to the rods, he says they've been recondition and they arent the same as in the article. Ok, so I order some stock replacement from Postons. Well, he now tells me they to are reconditioned! They are in better shape then the old stockers, in fact they looked brand new to me. They even came in Federal Mogul boxs, so will they be okay? I am using the ARP bolts. I guess what I'm asking is the looser clearence of the recond rods be ok?
