^^ I'm with stupid, are the bolts the weak point in these rods? thats the only reason I can see wanting to upgrade if there is a big difference. Any clue on how much $$ the difference is, I mean ---- its just a coupple of bolts.

correct, rod bolts are THE most stressed bolts in your entire motor. the arp 2000 bolts i think are like 3/8" or something and support an extra 1 or 200 hp and an extra 1000 rpm

hint to tuner toys -- if you guys offered your tt rods with a very cheap upgrade, or do a one time sale deal where the current price includes the arp 2000 it sounds like you'd have a lot of immediate buyers, includeing myself
