Product Details

The ARP 291-5801 main cap fastener kit provides high-strength engine block reinforcement for 4-bolt main applications. This complete kit includes precision-manufactured main studs, 12-point nuts, and hardened parallel-ground washers for maximum clamping force and reliability.

Key Features:

  • Manufactured from 8740 chrome moly steel for superior strength and durability
  • Heat-treated in-house to 200,000 psi tensile strength
  • Precision J-form threads rolled after heat-treat for 1000% stronger threads than conventional fasteners
  • 12-point nut design for easier installation and more accurate torque application
  • Hardened parallel-ground washers included for optimal load distribution
  • 4-bolt main configuration for maximum main cap stability

Performance Benefits:

  • Eliminates main cap walk and fretting under high loads
  • Protects engine block threads from damage during repeated installations
  • Provides consistent clamping force across all main caps
  • Essential upgrade for high-performance and racing applications

ARP main studs offer superior thread engagement and clamping characteristics compared to conventional bolts. The stud design allows the fastener to be installed and properly torqued without twisting, ensuring accurate preload every time. Each kit arrives complete with all necessary hardware for a professional installation.

Everything arrived well packaged and in good order... It was shipped promptly, but hey, no accounting for the snow storm in the NW... I think UPS calls it an "act of God"... Thanks

Ordered Monday, delivered Thursday - just as promised. Best price among all reputable on-line parts dealers. Saved at least a third off the most popular dealers.

Great selection and fast shipping. Not to meantion the lowest prices anywhere on the net.

I ordered new leaf springs for my Jeep Cherokee. Its already headed out to me. Ordering was nice and easy. I'll post more once i get it.
