INDESTRUCTIBLE TENSILE STRENGTH
Rated at 220,000 psi tensile strength. Threads rolled after heat treatment for optimum fatigue strength. Premium quality inspection standards ensure you\'ll never get blown head gaskets again.
OPTIMUM DESIGN
Broached stud ends install & make cylinder head removal easier. Installation manual is included with drawn diagrams to ease the installation process.
ULTRA CLAMPING FORCE
Head studs are designed to retain cylinder seal even with today\'s extreme high pressure turbo systems. These studs far exceed clamping forces provided by standard Ford head bolts.
NUTS & WASHERS INCLUDED
Hardened parallel washers allow for uniform load distribution and accurate torque readings.
Why Mains Studs?
Main studs are required for maximum loading & reduced wear and tear on the block threads. They assist with main cap alignment, and there is less of a change of main cap walking because the studs remain stationary during cap clamping. These main studs gar exceed clamping forces provided by standard head bolts.
