Thread: Headstud comparison

almost forgot to post. I found a head studs with the dog leg that we need and it's has the same threads as the ARP



do you guys think it will work?

witch brand is that

it's something I've been looking into, I will let everyone know later. But I want to be 100% sure that it will work before I have people go out and buy them.

it's 11x1.5m threads (same as ours) under $150 shipped and it's has the dog leg at the bottom.

edit: also the top part of the studs is the same as the ARP. the nut and washers are the same size and threads.

info from there site:

· Made from 4340 material heat treated to 180 KSI minimum
· Hex broach in top of stud for easy install
· Dog point bottom for thread & block stress relief
· Untouched finish on threads for more accurate torque values
· Optimized diameter on body of studs offer a much stiffer clamping force for extreme turbo and high RPM applications
· Kits come complete with precision 12 pt. nuts, hardened washers and detailed installation instructions
· These kits use original OEM torque specs so there is no block distrotion like other main stud manufacturers!
· Kits have been race proven and tested to WELL over 1000 WHP!!!

Hmmm interesting, wonder what properties it has and will it stand the test.

sorry, i was editing my post when you posted.

I was thinking the same thing, so I figured I'd get it to measure it up. the company is Golden Eagle http://www.goldeneaglemfg.com/index.html and I haven't found any issue anywhere on any forums yet.

witch motor

Keo, send me that set and I'll paypal you the money I'll be the guinnea pig. Head should be back from the shop tomorrow, and I'll need to get it put on the motor.
