It would be just as fun to do a pull test of the bolts.
I contacted ARP and asked if they did that but never heard anything back from them.
I truly beleive that a pull test would show that the new bolt breaks a lot faster than the old style one.
Thats the feeling I get when torquing them.
The old ones kind of bites into the engine and you feel how it clamps down when pulling the last 90 degree.
The new ones you just turn to specifications and stop without really getting the feeling that it have clamped down on the gasket. And that is when using a lower torque than with the old ones.
