Mini me y8 fast question???

Okay we have the head swapped and we need to know whether or not to use the d15b1 head studs or the y8 head studs,

the y8 appear too short
and we are torquing them 60ish

Yeah for some reason a while back a long time ago I thought that you had to use some d15 studs too. But Im 99.999% sure that you use the d16y8 head bolts. Good luck.

How much shorter? From what I've always read you use the headgasket and up for whatever head you're using.....are you gonna be re-using the studs?
