B17 and ARP the facts

NC-B17A · July 16, 2002, 5:49am

You may have seen my questions asking about ARP rod bolts and head studs. Well let me tell you the ARP-208-6401 Honda: 1.8L, 9 mm shank rod bolts work perfect.
Now the ARP-208-4303 Acura: All B18CI, 11mm head studs are too long on the block side, they will thread into the block but will not tork the head down. I will have 4 & a half threads cut off of these tomorrow I will post how this comes out.

so whatever happened to the studs???

After cutting the studs they worked fine. I think that ARP now makes headstuds for the B16/B17 block & head.

Any idea what the part number is for the b16/b17 head studs, if they make them. I checked ARP’s site and they aren’t listed yet.
