Default quick arp headstud question

I don't think your question can be answered that way. you need to measure them to see if they are still within spec. It might take one time to stretch them out or a lifetime.

I thought that the point of upgrading to ARP's is because the DON'T stretch like factory studs do. Am I wrong?

everything stretches. no matter how little the load, or stiff the material is. nothing is purely rigid.
