Main bearing cap bolts - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Howdy gents,

Reading the FSM, it appears that the main cap bolts are Torque to Yield, and are recommended to be replaced after use. Is this, in fact, the case?

If so, where is the best place to get replacement bolts (2-bolt motor)? Are there any upgraded bolts or studs? I know Bill K used to sell the stud kit, but I think it required some machining of the block and loss of the alignment dowels.

Thanks in advance,

Todd
