Maybe a problem in an alcohol engone but I wouldnt worry about that in a gas engine. Many racers use them. We do not run them for rod bolts but have many fasteners on the engine that are subject to water and fluids and have never had a problem. The big reason most do not run them is the cost. $750+- just for the bolts. The clamp load is higher also so the rod needs to be reworked for the new bolt. Not a good idea just to put the bolts in and run with it.
