Default head studs

i have an 05 lq4 im currently doing a swap with. i took apart the motor once first received it to make sure it was in good condition and right now im putting it back together for a little to get the car moving and it is eventually going to get boosted. im looking into getting head studs so i can have something reusable when the motor is rebuilt.what would you guys suggest for this, a motor that is going to get rebuilt several times. will arp studs do the trick. also what is the torque procedure for this now that is no longer stretch type bolts?

I have had my heads off 3 times with arp head studs. Arp will give you a torque spec to use with GM's torque sequence. Also make sure you have the arp molly lube for the install.
