Default Ge or Arp Head studs

Has anyone used the Ge head studs. They go for a bit cheaper than the arp, and they have stock torque specs. I can get them for a little over $100 on ebay. I am considering replacing my rings and headgasket, and I felt that head studs would be a good investment while I was at it.

I HAVE GE search for the GE in the classifieds because the dealer explains why they are better than ARP.

so really they are probably very similar quality. From what i have seen so far I could get the ge a little bit cheaper. Every bit counts when you a college student. Thanks for the input
