ARP SB Ford SS 12pt Oil Pan Stud Kit

When you're working on the bottom end of your Ford small block engine, especially if you're rebuilding the oil pan area, using quality hardware makes a big difference. This ARP oil pan stud kit is designed to replace those weaker factory bolts with strong, reliable studs. They're made from stainless steel, which means they won't rust or corrode, keeping that oil pan sealed up tight for the long haul.

ARP is well-known for making solid engine hardware, and this kit is no exception. The 12-point nuts are a nice touch, giving you more options for tightening them down in tight spots compared to standard hex nuts. Using studs also makes installing the oil pan a bit easier, as you can thread the studs in first and then simply slide the pan onto them before tightening the nuts. This helps ensure an even seal all the way around, which is crucial for preventing oil leaks.
