ARP Head Studs on 600/65 Engine?

Was curious if anyone has done this with the existing ARP Head Studs that the 55/63 guys have been using. IDK if those same head studs will work for our engine our not but I figured I should ask. Since heads are coming off I feel best to do head studs now instead of deciding much later on and pay a crazy price just to install them.

Look into the L19 style head studs from ARP. Much stronger!!!

Port and Polish Job on cylinder heads while engine is out I decided to do everything while I have it out instead of considering it later on and pay 4 grand just in labor. That's why I really want to look into head studs for the M275 engine, I wasn't sure if the ARP Head Studs the 55/63 guys using works for our engine or not

Call ARP and tell them what you have and you want the L19's, if they don't have it on a shelf they'll make them.

Sorry bringing back old thread, euphoriaDSM did you already did this mod on the M275? I'm not 100% sure if 55/63 uses same head studs as 65s but I have all the specs that ARP wanted on page 22 of there catalog.

If you or anyone has the specs for what they gave to ARP you mind sharing, cause if mine match up this will save me a lot of time and headache as head need to be back on the car in 2-3 weeks
