I might get in on this for the day my noobery gets the best of my tuning skills and the engine go boom.

Do these require ANY modification to use?

ANY AT ALL?

The rods are plug and play like they should be. I've had customers buy a set and install them with their stock pistons and existing rings in an afternoon.

That would likely be my plan so long as the stockers were in good shape.

Anyone sign up for this yet?

I do have a sign-up and we will start shipping as of next week without actually selling 10 sets first. We know we will sell the 10 so we won't make everyone wait.

Would you be doing this again some time later? I have plans to buy these rods, but right now is not a good time.

I only have enough bolts for sets of rods that we purchased. I can get you the part number and you can contact ARP to get some.

Thanks, Marc
