Mercedes recommends weistec? probably quality between them is too high ; )

correct, however made of better quality then amg i would assume. I mean ARP is the leader in the head bolt industry...

I don't know their exact relationship but I can't imagine why they would recommend a competitors product. If money isn't an issue then definitely get the weistec studs. But unless you are applying forced induction they will be overkill.

I would think weis attempted to make their own version of head studs and either failed miserably or wouldn't be able to sell them at a cheaper rate then arp. You know how klee and weis are, high dollar for no damn reason! Arp would be overkill for sure if money is a issue.

It's possible lifters are noisy but first oil level should be correct. If it is looks like you'll need new lifter as said previously.

My suggestion, if you need new lifters, get ARP head stud bolts.....
I have slightly got confused that should be changed; bolts of a head or hairpin!

What of elevator operators you would choose? Black series and standard lifters SLS.... I don't think to tune the engine to increase its power, me her resource is important what it wouldn't break! And to prevent wear of the engine and her weak parts!
