ARP Bolt Kits
ARP manufactures fasteners from a wide assortment of materials ranging from popular stainless steel and 8740 chrome moly to exotic alloys that have been developed to handle space travel. You should also know that there are grades within specific alloys. Nothing will create a more solid connection than ARP studs
For example, 8740 is available in four grades:
1. SDF (guaranteed seamless and defect free)
2. CHQ (cold head quality)
3. Aircraft
4. Commercial
ARP uses only the first two (SDF and CHQ), even though they cost more than double “Aircraft” quality.

Head Studs
These ARP head studs are the latest design and feature an recessed Allen head socket at the end of each stud for easy removal/installation with the motor in the car. With this new feature there is no reason to use bolts over studs. Studs offer significantly more thread engagement than bolts and have significantly more clamping force than bolts. These combined with our bullet proof head gaskets ensure you have the toughest head seal available. There is simple nothing that even comes close to the durability of this combo. We stock the studs that fit the stock heads only. Others are available through us on a custom order.
