are you able to reuse the stock ones? just curious and this is with stock rods

are you able to just use the arp rod bolts with no modification? and are they reusable?

You could reuse them.

I personally wouldn't.

ARP's at the least would need the rods to be magged and checked for straightness then pressed in.

Using ARPs it would also be wise to have the big ends resized (with them installed) to set proper bearing clearance spec.
