ARP head stud question.

[gergorian]

Ok, so I found that ARP makes head, and main studs for the B6. My question is: will the B6 head and main studs work on a B3?

Why do this you ask? Why not just re-use the originals? If the ARP stuff will work I want to use it because I am going to be getting a bump in compression and possibly a little boost later on and if I can get some more strength in the B3 block in anyway possible, I want it.

Any help or input is more than welcome!

IMHO, with out a better head gasket better bolts aren't really gonna help much. The stock bolts, if in good shape, will hold 7-8 psi just fine.

Yeah that is true, but out of curiousity would they work?

I would imagine so, I have 90 Miata B6D arp head studs in my 92 sohc B6, they worked just fine.

Good to know. When I get this B6 re-turboed, I was thinking of going to head studs after I pull the head, clean up the intake and exhaust ports, and have it decked. Might get a JY head and do all this to it, so I can just do a swap when the time comes.
