I'd take a set, with better group pricing, even if just to put on the shelf for now.
Hard to understand how 1-100 pieces is in the $4-6000 range.
Guess the tariff is working.

| Post subject: | ARP 2000 head studs |
For those looking for better cylinder head clamping, I’m interested in having a run of studs made for the slant 6 in ARP 2000 material. Looking over previous post, and talking with some of the members on this forum, a group purchase of these was made some years ago. I emailed Martin Ramos, in charge of special projects at ARP, requesting a quote. His initial response surprised me. 1-100 pieces 40-60 dollars a piece. If I had the part number and cost from the previous run, my guess is the price would come down considerably. Hopefully someone has that information? How many would like a set of these, given a fair price? Please let me know so I can respond to Martin. Thank you, Oz Cheek |

looks like that's a good bit cheaper than the ones summit has listed. what's the difference between the Pro and the 2000? ARP 142-4001 - ARP Pro Series Cylinder Head Stud Kits |

Are we talking complete sets, or talking individual studs?

Are you having trouble with head gasket sealing or breaking/stressing head studs already? The stock bolts are very strong and the regular ARP studs are stronger. Unless you are running 25+ psi of boost and making well north of 500 HP, I don't think the ARP studs should be any problem. One tip is to torque beyond the spec. I always torque my stock bolts to 85-90 ft-lbs and at least 80 on the (fine thread) ARP studs. I have had zero problems up to 15 psi and about 400 HP. Others have used the regular ARP studs up above 600 HP. Lou |

My understanding is the ARP 2000 material is 220,000 psi The regularly available part number is 180,000 psi There are several earlier posts about this topic. For boosted applications, I feel that it’s prudent to use best studs available, rather than have to do the job again, along with replacement of parts. |

Found the paperwork from Tom wolfe on the last group buy. No specific part # but i will scan and post the info. There might be useful invoice or order #'s on there. 7 of us bought sets at $189 per set plus shipping. That was in 2010. Greg |

I started lifting the head around 22 psi. I went with a copper gasket and the better studs together. Currently mid 30's on boost. Sign me up for a set if it's close to what I paid last time. Actually was thinking it was more than $189.00 for some reason. Which $189 is pretty cheap for the boost I'm running. How many buyers do we need for a $200 price tag? Later |

If you get a group buy in the $200 range I'll hop in. |
