Thought so. What about the following:
Flywheel bolts.
I am going to put in a different camshaft. What must I do about the cam followers. New ones from Nissan is a killer.

Just think if you have had 30 year old head bolts crack, why would you even consider reusing rod bolts.

Do it once and do it right.

Hi guys
Can I savely re use the conrod bolts and bolts that is used on the main end bearing caps of the crank?
Please note I want to rev the engine to 8000rpm without worries about the bolts letting go because I should have actually replaced them.
I have had twho head bolts crack on me in the past without reason because they were torqued to correct settings.
I don't want the same thing happing to the conrod or any of those bolts.
Any advice appreciated.
