Details

Repeated torquing of your rod nuts fatigues the threads. Don't take a chance – replace your Flathead Ford V8's old fasteners with the superior strength and quality of ARP rod nuts. ARP specialty hardware can be found in NASCAR, NHRA and IndyCar racing applications, so you can be sure it's strong enough for your flathead.

Could I possibly get the gram weight of one ARP Flathead rod nut? I've already balanced my rotating assembly and am curious how close these ARP nuts weigh to a stock Ford nut. It should be negligible, but, I'd like to know before I order...
