ARP Head studs
we have the passenger side head off my truck,and i have been researching the studs.I have read a lot of post where the ARP's are installed with the head on.That is not possible with the set I have??The studs have a rise where they meet the block..Does ARP make this type??I am wondering if I even have ARPs..

Installed with the heads on, but you either have to raise the cab, or loosen the motor mounts and rock the motor. When you say rise, are you talking like a raised ridge? The ARP's I have seen are blank(unthreaded) in the center.

The best way to discribe it, Its like they have a stop where they screw into the heads..they are blank in the center..

I believe this time we are going to do a hot torque..let the motor heat up to running temps a couple times,then re torque while at temp..
