Under the Hood: DodgeSRT-4
The rod bolts are the same 9mm in diameter as the naturally aspirated 2.4, but use a slightly different thread shape (called MJ9 if you insist on knowing everything) with a slightly more rounded chamfer at the bottom of the threads to reduce stress concentration. Since the base of the threads is the bolt's weakest point, this simple change strengthens the entire bolt.
