There's not really a difference. All of the stock ones suck. ARPs are around $90 and a really good investment.

If you have 241 heads, you have upgraded bolts. They have ferrules on them. There's a post somewhere i made about it asking about mine. Someone supplied pics. im too lazy to look for it though.
