SUppose to be better I dont have any data to back it up I like that they are 12 point and easy to install. I think you have to torque the ARP's som espeacial kind of way not sure. I just know those are the exact ones you need I odn tknow on the ARP's.
Whats an extra 55 bucks when you have spent so much on the swap already
I have said that repeatedly with my swap. Thats how I ended up with the DART heads, forged bottom end, custom forged pistons, and the shaft mounted rockers

The red line is a 13:1 AF rate. On a FI engine thats way too lean in my opinion. #7 piston seems to agree with me, it was very outspoken on this. The lower the AF ratio the better, to a point. I am shooting for 11.5:1 across the entire rpm range when I get it back running. This may cost me a few hp but I don't care. Plus, from what I have been taught since my dyno, the dyno will show you .5 to 1 point richer than you will see on the street (unless using a Mustang dyno that loads the engine more) so 12.5 on the dyno could be as much as 13.5 real world driving. With a blower that means "Boom"

More part questions:
Been doing lots of searches and came up with a few more items I may want or need. You guys chime in.
LS6 Valley cover: Help keep oil from getting spit into the intake? GM P/N12568002
Plug for PCV valve if I swap to LS6 valley cover GM P/N 12568011
Oil Pump: Just because? (5.3 has 70K miles on it)
And I still am planning on the ARP rod bolts or Kaetech (sp?) Any other ARP type bolts I should get while I'm at it?
What else?
