Re: Different kinds of Head Bolts/studs
no. the little dowels between the head and block align the head to the gasket to the block.
studs do nothing but keep them attached.
you'd have to contact arp and see. but they both look like head studs to me. top being the typical arp style. the bottom being oem style.

i know that but would it also be a good way to line up the head when putting it down and attach them?

Top are studs, the bottom are bolts. Headstuds don't stretch the way headbolts do, and while the dowel pins do align the head and the head gasket headstuds do make absolutely sure you don't accidentally catch the side of a hole in the head gasket and enlarge it.

Re: Different kinds of Head Bolts/studs
Torque specs will be different with headstuds vs headbolts. ARP includes their own torque specs with the head studs.
