Simply stated, there's not a better stud setup on the market today. For openers, ARP only uses premium grade 8740 alloy and a proprietary ARP2000 alloy that are rated far superior to \"aircraft\" quality alloy steels. Secondly, each stud is placed vertically into special racks and precisely heat-treated to 190,000 psi for the 8740 material and 220,000 psi for the ARP2000 material. This procedure ensures complete heat penetration and the results are far superior to those lesser quality studs from other manufacturers who just dump pieces in a basket and hope for the best. Following heat-treat, each stud is centerless ground to make it as close to perfectly concentric as possible. This procedure involves about ten very slight cuts and results in an exceptionally straight part. It's important to note that lesser quality studs not even centerless ground - the material is thread rolled in bar stock form (mostly before heat-treat, when the material is easier to machine). Because ARP studs are manufactured to such exacting tolerances, you will note that gaskets and cylinder heads literally glide into position and are perfectly aligned - something that won't happen with inferior quality head studs. ARP studs are thread rolled after heat-treat, which gives them about 2000% (that's twenty times) better fatigue strength than those studs that are threaded prior to heat-treat (a very common industry practice). It costs a lot more to do it this way, because it's tough on tooling, but the results are well worth the extra effort. You will also note that ARP offers specially undercut studs for several engines. This procedure (done only to the shorter studs) more equalizes the \"stretch\" of both studs, which makes for a more consistent clamping force - and one that compensates for head gasket compression when the cylinder heads are installed. This helps prevent blown head gaskets, and assures optimum engine sealing! Premium quality 8740 and ARP2000 head stud kits are available for most domestic and import applications. You won't find a better quality stud on the market from any other source. Look for ARP stamped on each stud as your assurance of quality. Clearly, they are the best on the market today, and the favorite of leading professional engine builders in all forms of racing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ARP Fasteners","offers":[{"title":"Suit Ford Racing Block with Cleveland Heads","offer_id":42024354939051,"sku":"AR154-4207","price":499.3,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/9319\/0315\/products\/arp-suit-ford-racing-block-with-cleveland-heads-arp-fasteners-head-stud-kit-hex-nuts-ar154-4207-srcopyright-1159754447.jpg?v=1749330721"},{"product_id":"ar154-4206","title":"ARP fasteners Head Stud Kit, 12-Point Nuts AR154-4206","description":"\u003cb\u003eHead Stud Kit, 12-Point Nuts\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eSuit Ford Racing Block with Cleveland Heads\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBrand: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eARP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Number: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAR154-4206\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDescription: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"value description\"\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt is for good reason that virtually every top professional engine builder relies on ARP Pro Series head studs for their all-out competition powerplants.

A Broken Bolt Will Lead To A Catastrophic Engine Failure. As You Can Imagine, The Most Critical Joint Is Where The Connecting Rods Mate. The Rod Bolts Must Support The Primary Tension Loads Caused By Each Rotation (or Cycle) Of The Crankshaft. When The Crank Rotates, The Big End Of The Connecting Rod Essentially Becomes Oval Shaped And The Rod Bolts Bend. As The Crankshaft Continues To Rotate, The Rod Becomes Round Again. With Alternating Tension Loads And Cyclic Bending Of The Bolts, It's Very Important To Install Fasteners That Are Able Exert A Clamping Force Greater Than The Load Imposed On The Joint (tension). In An Addition To Utilizing A Rod Bolt With Sufficient Strength To Withstand The Tremendous Cyclic Strains Placed Upon It, It Is Absolutely Imperative That The Bolts Be Properly Tightened. The Preferred Method Of Monitoring The Correct Amount Of Tension Is Through A Stretch Guage. This Is Far More Accurate Than A Tension Wrench Moreover Through Subsequently Checking The Rod Bolts Length At Teardowns, It Is Possible To Determine If It Has Been Stressed Beyond Safe Limits And Must Be Replaced.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ARP Fasteners","offers":[{"title":"fits SB Ford Boss 302 \u0026 351 Windsor","offer_id":42024356839595,"sku":"AR150-6004","price":218.5,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/9319\/0315\/products\/arp-fits-sb-ford-boss-302-351-windsor-arp-fasteners-conrod-bolt-set-ar150-6004-srcopyright-1159770985.jpg?v=1749645134"},{"product_id":"fefs8346pt","title":"Felpro Full Gasket Set FEFS8346PT","description":"\u003cb\u003eFull Gasket Set\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eSuit SB FordBoss 302\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBrand: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFELPRO\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Number: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFEFS8346PT\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDescription: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"value description\"\u003e \u003cp\u003eThese full engine gasket kits include all gaskets and seals required for a complete engine rebuild including head gaskets, intake BUT NO EXHAUSTmanifold gaskets, oil pan gaskets and all engine seals and ancillary gaskets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Felpro","offers":[{"title":"Suit SB Ford Boss 302","offer_id":42692328620203,"sku":"FEFS8346PT","price":376.02,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/9319\/0315\/products\/felpro-suit-sb-ford-boss-302-felpro-full-gasket-set-fefs8346pt-srcopyright-1159752745.jpg?v=1749299178"}],"url":"https:\/\/stealthride.com.au\/collections\/ford-boss-302.oembed","provider":"Stealth Ride","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
