after you remove the head aren't you suppode to replace the head suds? ive heard arp are really good. anyone used these before?

 

yes you should replace them. ARP is one the best. You cant retorque the OEM honda head bolts once they are taken off.

 

ARP head studs

You can't go wrong with it.

 

i heard that u dont really need to get a new set with these aftermarket studs, but im not 100% sure...im using AEBS.

 

ARP's you dont have to replace. the OEM hondas you do. either way you go, listen to the torque specs givin by the stud/bolt manufacturer. so if you go with honda, use honda torque specs. going with arp, use they're specs.

 

I like the Golden Eagle Mfg. " HD " head studs

I've had some friends re-torque oem honda studs and they haven't had a problem YET!
Its not something I'd recommend but it can be an option if you're cheap

I'd take the extra precaution and spend $100 buying arp head studs. You can't go wrong with them....

 

thanks for the info

 

APR headstuds will be the ONLY aftermarket headstud i use.
