Competition head stud kit (11 studs, nuts, and washers). Also includes rocker studs nuts and washers.

This special kit was developed to replace the increasingly inconsistent standard items. The studs are manufactured in selected high-grade steel and produced to exacting specifications. These studs do not stretch, so they pull the head down, not the thread up; this vastly increases head gasket life, even on high compression engines. Special thick washers, countersunk on one side, help clamping capability and reduce thread bottoming of the nuts. The 12-point skirted nuts help to increase torque accuracy through better engagement.

Note that even replacing the head bolt with a stud, only torque that stud to the factory recommended spec(25 ft/lbs), the other studs can be torqued to 65ft/lbs with oil, 55ft/lbs with ARP lube. (Rocker studs 25/20).

Question:
Will this ARP stud kit also work on my 948cc Bugeye? I realize I only need 9 studs not 11 but I need a nice set of studs for this engine. I think they are all 3/8", not sure if the lengths are the same?

Fastener Retention Overview There are three methods that can be employed to determine how much tension is exerted on a fastener; using a torque wrench, measuring the amount of stretch, and turning the fastener a pre-determined amount (torque angle). Of these methods, use of a stretch gauge is the most accurate.

Competition head stud and nut kit
Created: January 30, 2000
This kit has been produced by Mini Spares to reduce head gasket problems on performance orientated engines, especially those utilising large over bore sizes. Standard type head studs and nuts are mass produced which unfortunately compromises the specification of the end product. Worst affected are the threaded portions which create problems during torque-down; thread deformation, stud distortion and possible stretch, off-square seating of the nut to head and so on.
