Arp head studs?

[Brokenbird]

Will gen 2 studs work in a gen 3? I found a good deal on a set and seeing if they are worth getting

Don't know but just because you are asking about a GEN 111 you really don't have to make 3 threads .........................Someone will chime in soon ...lol

Awesome that's what I wanted to hear

I know a few engine builders that will only use OEM head studs because they are stronger and don't stretch, but check with your builder and see what he tells you or recommends.

This would be a new one on me... no OEM head bolts I have ever seen would come close to the tensile of an ARP 8740 stud, let alone the ARP-2000 studs that are used in the Viper application.

Just telling ya what I was told, the two builders had some ARP head studs stretch and it wasn't good and they never had an OEM head bolt stretch.:dontknow:
