Default Would you be interested in a LS1 head stud kit for $100?

I have a lot of head studs here that were never made into a kit. They are for the early LS1 long/short style heads. They are made in the USA by A1 Technologies, a Motorsports and Aerospace fastener manufacturer so they are top quality. They are black oxided. The only catch is they are BYONW - Buy Your Own Nuts & Washers. They don't come with it so you would have to source them from ARP or elsewhere. Is that a good deal for $100? Would anybody be interested?

It would depend on the extra cost from arp.

Any word on what all the extras would cost?

I found two of the four part numbers so far that it will need. Using those two to estimate the other two I figure about $70.

Nothing did. There was very little interest.

Haha I know. The 2 bolt ebay studs are on national back order. I am interested. The A1 studs are of ARP quality arent they?

The 2 bolt ebay studs were removed from Procomps Catalog. I'm not sure there is any plans to make more and since they pulled it from their own store as well as the the 2014 catalog listing. I have doubts.
