When ARP head studs are needed?

crower 62404
11.5 : 1
100 shot direct port


The potential for OEM studs to fail, pretty high in this application ?

You would be absolutely fine with stock however if you have the motor apart why not just install the studs... Besides the additional strength they look cool too for the 45 mins that you get to see them... haha... Good Luck

I would not risk using the oem ones. ARPs are $115 from Summit Racing.

ARP's all the way!! Stock head bolts tend to stretch after a few uses that's why it's not recommended to reuse them.

the nice thing about head studs too is you dont have to replace them if you have to tear down the engine later on unlike head bolts.
