im going to change mine soon to be on the safe side for my future mods .have any of u got this on ur car and what is the best for a d16z6 its going to be n/a.yeah and the arp head bolts don't look stock how would i install it.any help will be greatly thanks. if u ask why is because the motor got a lot of miles and im planning on doing a full tune up/rebuilt . thanks jdmboi86

 

Just get the stock Cometic or OEM headgasket. Not 100% but i believe the D16y8 headgasket is the same and its cheaper

ARP"s are a great investment on any engine.

I have to agree. If your car is stock and you're only planning on NA (Idk why) your best bet would be OEM headgasket w/ ARP headstuds. Stock headstuds cannot be re-used. You dont need any other hg for this type of build.

 

i run a cometic HG but thats only because im boosting if you plan to keep that motor na and just run it hard get the stock gasket the arp bolts i would say is good just to have

 

about the arp head studs/bolts does it comes like the factory bolts instead of just the long screws and bolts

 

arp's are studs not bolts, they screw into your block(basically just a threaded stick), then you put nuts on the studs(is there any way to put that that doesn't sound like a sexual innuendo?)

 

how would u screw it on the block do i need special tools or can i tighten down with the nut in place untill tight thats the part that get's me

 

you start the threaded stud by hand and then put 2 of the nuts on that stud and lock them together then you can tighten the stud from there.

 

actually the stud only needs to be hand tight, the nuts are what puts pressure on the head(there we go with the sexual innuendos again )

 

kool that was the parts that got me
