I know this sounds stupid, but how risky is it to re-use connecting rod bolts on a complete rebuild?
I'm already rebuilding the rest of the engine with new everything, so it's kind of silly not to get new ones. I'm going to be boosting it eventually. I'm just curious about everyone's thoughts since I have about 40 used con rod bolts from my 3.5 donor engines.
I'm ordering new main & con rod bearings and pistons soon. If don't need to spend the extra $100 for bolts it'd be nice, but I dont mind the expense either for peace of mind.
