Head Studs?
Hey all, I was on here awhile ago with questions on diagnosing my 7.3 problems. Well I am now in the process of rebuilding the motor and would like to put head studs in (one of a few minor mods). I can't seem to find these anywhere online. Is it even possible to get these for the idi motors anymore?

You can also buy ARP2000 material studs for the 7.3 that are rated 220,000 psi tensile strength instead of 190,000 psi rating for the 8740 material that Justin sells... however they are considerably more expensive and 190K psi should be PLENTY for what we can throw at it with DB pumps. Just for comparison here are some ARP2000 studs:
