They wont fit. The end that threads into the block is thicker on the LS/B20. The ones you have should be thick on one end and tapper right past the threads and become smaller. You should need ones without a tappered end.

If you take your stock head bolts out you should see that the tappered end on the arps is thicker than the bolt.

Search seriously. Gsr headstuds = Lsv/B20v headstuds. the thickness has nothing to do with it its the length.
