Why are head studs better?: Despite BMW engineering some of the worlds most revered engines, during number crunching; something always has to be a compromise.<BR>
One item that is always found to be a weak point...the OEM hardware that is sub-par for real performance use. Whenever the head is coming off, or if you are prepping to drive your car hard, we highly recommend switching to far superior race-grade hardware.<BR>
Though more expensive than OEM, converting to one of our head studs kits will not only give added strength and reliability when its needed most, but provides the most accurate torque readings because studs don’t “twist” into the block; all clamping forces are on one axis, and there is less force exerted on the normally stressed threads of the block. This increases block and hardware life and typically makes the head easier to properly install to the block, a blessing if your head may have to be removed more than once.<P>
<B>ARP</B> is the world leader in fastener technology.<BR>
Makers of the finest fasteners in the market, especially for BMW engines, ARP is the choice when you want the highest reliability possible. If you are looking for high performance from you BMW engine, than ARP Head Stud Kits are a must. All kits come complete with hardened parallel-ground washers and aerospace quality nuts<BR><BR>
