Default Head Gaskets and Head Studs

I've finally gotten around to shooting emails to ARP and Cometic about having headstuds and headgaskets made. I was just wondering how many people might be interested.

The pros of the studs are more secure head clamping, more even pressure distribution. and plus the ability to make more power/run more boost without lifting the head/damaging head gaskets (assuming the bottom end is up to it)

And with the headgaskets, you can run a thinner headgasket to bump compression and make more power (NA cars) or run a thicker headgasket to drop compression so you SRT guys can run more boost/nitrous.


Just wondering, as I'll be doing both, since I want peace of mind that I wont have any problems down the road
