Theyre designed to make it as easy as possible to install a pan and seal it properly. Youll note that the studs have a radiused bullet nose that serves to locate the pan rails, then allow the nuts to be easily installed without the worry of cross threading. For those who prefer bolts, ARPs got you covered, too. Both are available in black oxide

premiumgrade aerospace chrome moly steel

Studs are manufactured with a unique nut-starter nose that helps prevent cross-threading

the harmonic damper absorbs incredible amounts of kinetic energy

They feature a special billet aluminum sleeve that accurately positions the shaft and keeps it from wobbling

which is substantially stronger than the OEM bolts

Comes with a heavy-duty

They are both forged from aerospace alloy and heat-treated prior to thread rollingand machining

It has approximately 200% the fatigue life of 8740 chrome moly steel and has a tensile strength of 220

Those first moments an engine runs prior to building oil pressure are when damage can easily occur
