I spoke to BE about this and there isn't any good news. We (Auto Talent) haven't shipped any BE bolts to M-Power since October 2019.
These clearly are not BE Bolts and we don't know where they come from or what the specs are. What concerns BE the most, is they are being marketed as BE-ARP bolts, when they are not a BE product.
The bolts shown later in this thread are definitely BE-ARP bolts. Those are the bolts you should get when you order BE bolts since the start of 2020.
This issue came first to BE's attention when M-Power was selling the "BE-ARP" bolts less than BE's MAP pricing which was the first hint. The second hint was a customer who called and was told M-Power was out of stock and was expecting 40-sets of bolts in the next few days. A few days later, the customer received bolts that did not have the "BE" stamped on the head, was not in the foam tray and did not have BE instructions -- thus confirming they are not selling authentic BE-ARP bolts.
As an unfortunate result of this, BE had to terminate their relationship with M-Power.
