ARP Head Stud Kit

The ARP Head Stud Kit (MPN: 208-4305) is engineered for Honda D16Y8 engines, providing enhanced strength and reliability for critical engine components. Crafted from premium grade 8740 chromoly alloy, these studs are heat-treated to a tensile strength of 200,000 psi, ensuring exceptional durability under demanding conditions. ARP's meticulous manufacturing process includes centerless grinding for precise concentricity and thread-rolling after heat treatment. This advanced technique results in approximately 1000% greater fatigue strength compared to studs threaded before heat treatment, a common but less robust industry standard. The result is a superior quality stud that far outperforms lesser alternatives. This kit is specifically designed for the following Honda applications: 1996-1997 Honda Del Sol Si and 1996-2000 Honda Civic EX models equipped with the SOHC VTEC D18Y8 engine. Each kit contains one item and comes with ARP's Manufacturer Standard Warranty.
