Hi,
Does anyone know where I can source a head stud kit for a TB42? I am told ARP is the way to go, but cannot find the TB42 as an engine type on their website...
Thanks!

depends on where you are ?...All Head Services have them , plus everything else in relation to heads
cant say ive ever been able to find a kit, but might be possible to get the right size/length stud if you talk to one of their distributors, i know the thread is m10x1.5 and from memory the bolts are about 130mm long so you would need 140-150mm studs surely they would have something that would work
Roodogs sells them... there are plenty of others that also sell them.
Any particular reason you are wanting to use studs?
its just terminology mate....they are boltsQuote:

This is what I was getting at. It have to be a decent build if it required head studs though. Nothing internally would be standard possibly the crank but yeah.Quote:
