Bob,

Those are not the bolts we are using. The ones we sell have the proper knurl size.

What is the knurl size? The reason I ask is that ARP says that "correct" torque on their 7/16" studs is under 75 ft/lbs and that their 12mm studs have a higher rating, and this I would prefer to make that change.

Cool. Do you recommend the Gorilla hollow style lug nuts?
