Re: Another Cyl Stud Concern
The short studs may work as long as the top thread on the stud is at the top of the nut. Another factor those thick ARP washers are not needed I always use stainless washers which are thinner that the ARP washer. I always order ARP studs, nuts and stainless washers from Allensfasteners.com on line they sell every item a lot less than anyone else You could order a longer stud from Allen's in any quantity needed.
If you find it comes up a touch short backing the stud out of the block a bit would work as well. The deciding factor is how high a torque you use if its 50 I don't see why what it would not work.
