    Sourcing factory type main bolts and side bolts

    Hey dudes, just got my motor back from the machine shop, now on to assembly. I'm looking to get new bolts for the mains as well as the side bolts. Not looking for ARP bolts because the block was not machined for it. The engine is out of a 2005 aviator if that makes a difference. To my knowledge it doesn't. Anyway I'm not looking for something expensive. Just stock type replacements as this motor is just a touch under 400HP. thanks.

    My search has led me to part number M-6345-A46. Looking to confirm with those who know.

    Most people just spring for the extra $ to get ARP. The OEM and OEM replacement bolts are tty, one time use while the ARP are reusable.
    Thanks to Darrin @ BC Automotive:
    $1800 and it was worse than when he started!

    I purchased high grade bolts and washers from an online retailer. Saved a bunch of money

    Exactly what I did ARP main studs w/windage tray standoffs and ARP side bolts.

    Do u mind sending the website and the sizes?


    I would do the arp bolts but the mains would be out of round with the higher clamping force. I read somewhere that Ford part number fits late model 4v motors. Looking to confirm.

    For everyone's information, the part number I wrote about earlier does in fact work, regardless of what windage tray you have. Thanks for playing.
