head studs

[belvedere]

Does anyone sell a head stud set for the flat 6?  I have a 230 with a stock head.  Thanks!

I looked they sell  stock type and ARP studs, washers and nuts. Arp make the highest quality bolts,studs, etc on the automobile market yet not  too high $$. JMO.

 

You will  find Arp products at Summit Racing and others for less $$, maybe?? Worth a look??

I recently purchased an ARP stud kit listed for a Chrysler L6 engine   (ARP 142-4001).  Didnt notice until the the package arrived and I opened the box that it only included 15 studs but the head on my 265 requires 21.   Watch out for this

Are they the right length?  That arp number shows to be a slant 6 package.

I bought ford model a studs for my '28. The short ones were about 1/2" longer  and had to use a washer under nut, which is not the end of the world.

Was just informed when i contacted ARP tech support.??‍♂️

 

Purchased from Summit and I will be returning. What threw me off was the reference to cast iron head for L6 Chrysler engine.

 

found this elsewhere on a post here.

Completely wrong kit!   Studs about 1 1/2 inch too long.

My ARP Main and Head Stud Order from 2005 that is running in my 251 engine since then.

Thanks to James Douglas for the part numbers!

I ordered the above for my 265 today.

I got somebody at ARP on the phone who acted like I was taking up his important time.

He was very direct (which is to say short) but we got it done!

He wanted to direct me to a distributer but I told him they only wanted to sell kits, then without a pause went right into my order.

$230.
