ARP Head Studs

[CrazyInBlack]

Can they be reused? if they are used what would be a good price?

[QWKSNKE]

yes they can. I would consider getting bolts over studs. I have found out since installing the studs that the heads can be a pain in the --- to remove with the engine still in the car

your better off not getting studs unless you have them installed and used during the final cylinder clean up after getting a block bored.
The reason is that a stud will change the shape of the cylinder compared to the shape that a bolt once the cylinder head is installed and fully torqued.

For the nearly-stock-type motor he's running, they probably won't distort the cylinder bore enough to cause issues. With a tighter setup and some higher tension rings...it could definitely pose a problem.

And I think there are a few heads that are difficult to remove without taking out two lower studs , but I personally haven't had any difficulty. The studs also keep the water in the block instead of pouring into the cylinder when you remove the head. :shrug:
