I need to know how they are installed. In the other thread called "Wie verstaan Afrikaans" we spoke about ARP rod bolts.
Apparently it is a V8 engine's bolts you buy. Clive informed us that they are a little bit thinner than normal rod bolts which cause them not to be center in the bolt hole on the conrod. I am worried about this. Another guy said you can get it center grind which I don't know what it means. We need advice here in South Africa to do this right.

As Connor said.

Motown will import my set of A14 specific rod bolts.

What some of the ppl do use modify the V8 bolts to fit, works out cheaper, but I'm not convinced.

The only reason I can see them not buying A Series specific bolts is that they are much more expensive than say the L series kits. Looking at R750 for a A series kit vs L series kit of +- R500.
