ARP Pontiac 400 w/ Edelbrock Aluminum Heads Head Stud Kit

If you're rebuilding the top end of your Pontiac 400 and using Edelbrock aluminum cylinder heads, this head stud kit from ARP is what you'll want to secure those heads. ARP has been a trusted name in fasteners for a long time, and their head stud kits are well-known for their strength and reliability. This kit is specifically made to work with the combination of a Pontiac 400 block and Edelbrock aluminum heads, ensuring a proper fit and consistent clamping force.

These studs are made from ARP's proprietary 8740 chromoly steel, which is heat-treated to give them a tensile strength of 200,000 psi. This is a significant improvement over stock head bolts, providing a much more solid foundation for your engine's combustion pressure. The kit includes the necessary studs, nuts, and washers, all manufactured to ARP's exacting standards. Using studs instead of bolts also makes it easier to remove the cylinder heads later on, as the studs stay in the block and you just unbolt the head.

When installing, make sure to follow the included instructions carefully, especially regarding thread sealant and torque specifications. This kit is designed for a direct fit with the specified engine and head combination, so you can be confident in its performance and durability.
