Kit comes with (10) studs , (10) washers, and (10) nuts needed for a direct bolt on, as well as the ARP moly-lube and instruction sheet. ARP recommends studs over bolts because of the ability to obtain a more accurate torque reading studs provide over bolts. Studs don't twist as they are fastened down. Because of this, there is less force exerted on the thread of the block, resulting in increased block life, especially on aluminum blocks. IMPORTANT NOTE! This kit is for bolting on the cylinder head. Head Studs are used to connect the cylinder head to the engine block. Replace your stock head bolts with ARP heavy duty head studs. The stud design helps the head and the block equalize the pressure better thereby creating a much more even and consistent seal.
