[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 16397606, member: 166576"] Its an ARP 2000 stud custom designed to completely fill in and reinforce the void inside the crank snout. Ford, for whatever reason, machined an undercut fillet in the front crank snout of every GT500 crank. The cavity for the factory crank bolt extends past the under cut fillet. Factory crank bolt does NOT extend much past the fillet. The factory and ARP made "upgraded" bolt also torque into the front of the snout causing an already non-reinforced section of crank to be torsionally stressed INSIDE the snout. Add bigger blowers an/or a 2 step, and this thing gets much more prone to being snappy. This stud not only completely fills and reinforces the crank snout, but it also completely eliminates the torsional torquing stress of the crank bolt inside the snout. For $80, [USER=163228]@JB_2010GT500[/USER] is making a very solid insurance policy available for a modest sum. Here's a pic from the manufacturer, showing exactly why this kit is worth every penny!
