Default Re: Head Studs

I ran an aluminum head that required longer studs. I made an investment in ARP studs that are about a 1/4" longer than stock. This made up for the extra length I needed due to needing to use washers with my heads. Hearing guys saying to adjust the length of the stud by backing it out of the hole is just stupid. It only has 3/4" engagement to begin with. A benefit of using good studs is I have yet to have a head nut move during retorque of the head. They are expensive, but well worth it.
