Re: head studs? (that one doood)

ARP has had some problems with thier head studs. If u do a search u will see. But "some" people have been fixing the problem by tighting the studs with 10ft lbs and the ARP moly lube.

not just arp, i've read some threads where people say stay away from the aebs, as well as other brands as well. It all depends on how they are torqued. I recommend going with the ARP head studs though.....
