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.
The ARP Head Stud Kit for the BMW N12, N14, N16, and N18 1.6L engines is the gold standard for engine longevity. Designed to replace the factory torque-to-yield bolts, these studs offer significantly higher clamping force and can be reused during future engine maintenance. If you are planning a performance tune or a rebuild, these studs are an essential upgrade to prevent head gasket lift.
These studs are specifically engineered to maintain a consistent seal under the high cylinder pressures common in turbocharged Mini and BMW 1.6L applications. By utilizing a stud design, you ensure that the cylinder head is properly aligned and secured, reducing the risk of gasket failure during spirited driving. The installation process is straightforward, but we always recommend following the manufacturer's torque sequence and using ARP assembly lube for optimal results. Upgrade your engine's integrity today with the best hardware on the market. For all your performance automotive needs, look no further than GGCRACING.
