Rod bolts frozen - or so it seems
Picked up a set of prepped '63-5 forgings from FB, with the cloverleaf pad and the faint "GM" in the beam. Look very nice - beams are ground and polished, shot peened from the texture, maybe even beaded. I know- they're 'soft' but my build won't spin past 5500.
Good news: bolts look like ARP
Bad news: clamped them in the vise, and the bolts ain't budging.
To anticipate a question, yes righty tighty lefty loosey. Check.
Before I hit them with the impact, any suggestions? There was very minor rust spotting from what I presume may have been garage/shed moisture, but nothing consequential.
Thanks in advance.
