For those interested here is the link to ARP:

This will explain the high torque figure - they are designed to work in stretch mode.

Re: Phoenix Big End Bolts

Thanks Martin

It seems the torque is with a lubricant more slippery tham moly, which makes the figure even more remarkable.

It is relatively simple to work out the approx load at various rpm. Figures may interest some if anyone has?

Not all appreciate (or believe!) that beyond quite modest rpm the max b.e.loading is upward.
