Just wondering what people running high boost (45lbs+) are using for head studs, will the standard size arp work or should i have my machine shop drill and retap for the bigger half inch studs. I have also heard about a new stronger material L98 i think. This is on a 84 mm b series. The block is sleeved with golden eagle hd sleeves and oringed. Experienced comments please. Thanks in advance.

 

I see NO reason to use anything other than stock size.
We use the Golden eagle headstuds.
Never had trouble with ARP's either, But I like the GE MUCH better!

 

Thanks alot you guys would know.

 

we arent pushing over 45psi(yet) .... but we do run stock size studs (GE block/o-rings) with no problems.

 

hey fmunk, are u guys running stock size head studs on eggums car?
