Default strange 12 bolt wheel stud length???

so i want to order stranges 12 bolt rear end for my 2001 camaro. the choice of wheels studs are 1/2" or 12 mm X 1.5. the rep at strange tells me that the studs are not the knurled type (press fit) like ARP has but a screw in type. he says the studs are only 1.5" long. this is way to short. i think this guy has no idea what he is talking about. can anybody tell me how long the studs are on the strange 12 bolt rear end? are they only 1.5" long and can you order a longer length stud like the 2.5" stud that ARP lists in their catalogue? i have these ARP knurled press fit studs on my stock 10 bolt now and they are 2.5" long. the strange rep says that their rear end is not machined to work with these studs?

I went down and measured mine, they're 12mm and the threads are 2" (not counting the head of the stud).

Glad I could help, and congrats on your purchase! Same setup I got, but the gears in the Torque-line posi are 4.11, no big difference though.

Congrats!!!
