OK interesting. I'd be interested to see what others have seen/measured.

I'm pretty in tune to LSX engines and many have installed ARP rod bolts without resizing the journals. They do in fact produce a greater clamping force which reduces the clearance by a measureable amount (don't have #'s off hand). Some engine failures have been attributed to the reduced clearance issue on those motors. In an ideal world, it would behoove us to do that on the S65, but that would require us to completely tear down this motor.
