    I just got these and need to degree the cam and torque the rods but I forgot to call TA about the torque. Should it still be 45 like the stockers? Thanks!

    Are those the $600 eagle rods? If so I may have the specs in my unopened box.

    I found my answer, 63 foot pounds for the 7/16s bolts. It was in the box LOL

    Nice, my molar with the arp 2000 bolt didn't have a true tongue spec.....they wanted rod bolt stretch

    Molnars can also be torqued with the torque angle method

    Just remember that if you do not use the far and away more accurate stretch method then you need to get the bolt up to the needed 63 ft lb in one non stop movement of the wrench once the nuts have seated on the rod cap!

    Thats how mine are.
    Had to buy a torque angle gauge, kinda goofy to get it set right to read the degree's after reaching the specified torque.
