I bought a set of these late last year and just installed them on my car when I built a new engine a few months back. They are ARP bolts as ARP is stamped in the head of every bolt just as all authentic ARP bolts have. I have taken out bent and damaged stock bolts on higher powered cars so wanted an upgrade since I can launch my car (rwd) at full throttle and get low 1.6 60's and hopefully cut into the 1.5s when I get a chance to go back to the track if I ever have time to work on the car lol. I was unaware of this problem with these bolts so checked into it a little and couldnt find anything other than people saying not to use them because of past problems but couldnt find any problems though I do see where they are coming from. I found a thread on 3800pro about someone asking about these bolts and someone from Intense posted that these bolts are not specifically flexplate bolts and were intended as accessory bolts from ARP but were a match to the size of the 3800 flexplate bolts. I cant believe they are sub-par bolts as they make a great product but the test of time proves itself and if a product doesnt work then it doesnt work. Now its got me wanting to drop the trans out of my car and put stock ones back in! I only have about 500 miles on the engine and hate to take things back apart but its probably for the best.IIRC they are not even ARP bolts!
Some post I came across pointed out that the bolts sold as ARP flexplate bolts are not even ARP.
