.005-.006 stretch. Usually about 70ft lbs...usually! More details like..manufacturer, and bolt brand, type would help.

these are the cheap chinese stock appearing rods for my pure stock we found nothing in the box they are a 7/16 12 point capscrew
called where we bought them and they said they thought 45 but i thought it was more than that

Is the bolt itself a 7/16 or is that the size of the socket that fits it?
