Childs & Albert Rod Torque Help
Bought a 331 SB Chevy with Childs & Albert 100 Rods, 7/16 Bolts with Childs Albert on end of the bolts, Look like ARP. Rod has 327-06 on side in black ink. Any help would be appreciated. This motor is from the early 80's. Thanks Jackie

Re: Childs & Albert Rod Torque Help
Replace them as you do not know how many times they have been torqued and you do not have a blueprint sheet that shows original vs. stretched length.
It can get really expensive if a bolt lets go...

Re: Childs & Albert Rod Torque Help
Jeff is correct. Get the dimensions and either look it up in the ARP catalog, or call the 800 number for ARP, they'll probably have a good replacement bolt. Put the new bolts in and have the rods checked for size and roundness, and resized if necessary. Otherwise, just get yourself a new set of rods.
