Stock head bolts

15 lbs max boost, of course I know detonation could be the deciding factor.

Could you get away with stock head bolts? Upgrade to ARP head bolts? Or even go to head studs? I think I will run Victor Reinz head gasket #5855.

Personally I think head studs would be a waste of money, for this particular application.
 
Re: Stock head bolts

Stock head bolts will work just fine. Dont re-use stock head bolts. They have streaching tollerances when they are torqued to spec. Victor Renz head gaskets are fine also.
Not really sure what your goals are from your post. What are you "trying to get away with" 15psi is fine for stock head bolts so Im not really sure the question.

Well since my application is a little different I just wanted to check with the big boys:tup:

Thanks for the reply
