ARP (Automotive Racing Products) makes the strongest fasteners in motorsport — head studs, main studs, rod bolts, and flexplate bolts used by every Formula 1, NHRA, NASCAR, and championship motorsport program. Aerospace-grade alloys, exact-fit machining.
When you choose Merlin cylinder heads for your Big Block Chevy, you are investing in performance. Protect that investment with an Auto Racing Products (ARP) head stud kit tailored specifically for these heads. This kit includes the correct combination of 8 long and 2 short exhaust studs, ensuring a perfect fit and proper torque distribution across the entire cylinder head surface.
These studs are manufactured to exceed OEM specifications, utilizing high-tensile chromoly steel that is heat-treated for maximum strength. The 6-point hex nut design ensures ease of installation and reliable torque application. By using studs instead of bolts, you benefit from easier cylinder head alignment and more accurate torque readings, as the studs do not twist into the block during tightening. This prevents thread galling and ensures that your head gasket is compressed evenly, which is essential for maintaining compression in high-output engines. Whether you are building a street-strip machine or a dedicated race car, this kit provides the peace of mind that your top end is secure. Trust the experts at ARP to provide the best fastening solutions for your engine build. Explore our full range of engine components at GGCRACING.
