What are the benefits of these. Who easy are they to fit. And where is the cheapest place online to buy these.

I will be putting in a standard x16xe on Throttle bodies, protec exhaust manifold, stainless exhaust. Would i need ARP rod bolts for this setup?

I would fit them to that spec. I don't think they are as easy as take out and put in. I'm pretty sure you need to countersink them in the caps and there is a torque sequence.

Nope. You need to drill the bearing caps so they are countersunk. Then you have to torque them up a few times to get the bolts to stretch.
