Why do you need aftermarket? I just bought 3 new ones from GM.

I re-used my stock bolts... make sure you clean them and use new blue lock-tite on them though.

The factory ones are the only ones you want to use because of the flat head design, so it doesn't interfer with the clutch when it engages, and also, it has the precise depth. They are also already grade like 12.9 from the dealer. and no, no aftermarket solution, also, none needed.

Yeah locktite is a must, they come from the parts dept with locktite on them.. I just reinstalled my stock ones with locktite, didnt torque but tightened them as much as I could with the socket and breaker bar lol

I used new ones from ARP.......I'd trust them more than stock but I've never heard of stockers being a problem even with some good power.

yes, the bolts can most certainly fail....










the haynes manual calls for i believe 75 (it might be 45, i cant remember for sure) ft lbs torqued AND a 45 degree pull on the torque wrench.. if i remember correctly...

also, like the others have said, its a MUST to put lock tite on them if re-using the stockers, and also like david said-the new stockers come with the lock tite already on them and are pretty damn cheap. these are definitely items you dont want to cheap out on.



Wanting a nice set of black 17's with mint tires? Pm me.

Yeah that was my method. Put everything my arms could muster into it, plus the locktite. Same goes for pressure plate bolts.

I used ARP's for a 4.6/4.8L mustang engine IIRC. The part number is floating around on here somewhere.
