Why Choose ARP Fasteners?

  • Superior 8740 chromoly steel construction

  • Eliminates head gasket movement and failure
  • Precision-rolled threads for consistent torque readings
  • Ideal for naturally aspirated or turbocharged builds

Designed specifically for the Protege DX, ES, LX, MP3, and Protege5, this kit ensures that your engine remains reliable during high-RPM operation. Each stud is heat-treated and black oxide finished to resist corrosion and ensure long-term performance. Installing these studs is a critical step in any engine overhaul, providing peace of mind whether you are daily driving or hitting the track. Experience the difference that professional-grade hardware makes in your vehicle's performance. Upgrade your engine today with this essential component from GGCRACING.
